I'm buying an ECS KT600-A Mainboard ( :confused: )

does anyone have any suggestions for a good video card under aprox 90-100 dollars that is compatible with that card?

and can someone spot this configuration? i dont wanna end up with a computer part that doesnt work with the rest of the computer

Video Card (suggestions?) or BFG Asylum 128MB DDR AGP 8X Video Card with nVidia's GeForce FX 5200 3D Chip (will it work?)

thanks so much in advanced!
 
i really wouldnt get that mobo if i were you..
and that case is really, really terrible.
just go on newegg and get an abit NF7-S and a 2500+, and any antec, coolermaster, or lian-li case.
and go for a radeon 9600Pro or 9600XT, they can be found for $100-150.
 
why is the case soo bad? if its the way it looks i like that -.-
and i only have about $400 to buy stuff..

i already have the hd, audio, dvd-rom (i want to add a dvd r/rw cd r/rw drive) floppy drive, and network card... so i still need the mobo, processor, vid card, and case...
 
oh and i have 256mb ram (128X2) does it matter what kind it is? because i cant really tell... if i need to know could u tell me where to look to find out?
 
whta will you use this setup for? you cn buy a lot better 9200s for less than half the price on the site you have. id go for the 9600 pro for 111 on new egg, more than 2 time the speed of a 9200
 
2500+ = $80
NF7-S = $85
Antec Sonata = $100
9600XT = $150

$415.
i highly recomend you save $50 more and go with a 9800pro for $200.
 
From what I have heard the KT600 chipset is pure crap. If you computer that you are pulling parts from is over 2 years old then you might have to get new RAM. It is more than likely PC133 or even PC100. Get CPUZ and click the Memory tab. It should say what it is. For example mine says Corsair DDR-SDRAM PC3200 - 512MB.
