The SiS650 is an AGP chipset, but its on the motherboard. Some manufacturers making motherboards with onboard graphics like this cut corners by not including and AGP slot to expand with. Your Motherboard has all the hardware to support a replacement AGP card, but no way to actualy install one. And no, you cant install an AGP slot at a later date.

No i cant see that it have a AGP slot available only two pci slots!
Btw you can buy a good pc with no built in video or sound but the pc can have a good grapich card and sound card for that Sir Goulum only ask in the computer shop and say that you want a pc to the same price without this built in thingies no problem at all i think! Then you have a computer that you can "upgrade" later if you want! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Ok, as long as I can play NWN , and it won't be terrible, I'm fine [img]smile.gif[/img]

And NWN and Morrowind would be Unplayable with only 32 meg of video ram!!!!!
Also all new games that come will be almost unplayable to because new games are memory hungry beasts! :D

3 PCI slots total, 2 PCI slots free. NO mention of AGP slots at all.

Goulum, I woudnt try NWN with less than 64Mb. Ask at the shop if theres a machine for a similar price with better graphics (or a free slot and you can get graphics later).

Ok..I've got about 2 months to find a good computor, so theres no rush. Could you suggest a computor that has an AGP slot and is under $2000 canadian? I don't seem to have much luck finding one :(

Have you checked out a Dell? http://www.dell.com/us/en/dhs/produc...n_desktops.htm

Yes, but I don't think my dad wants to do all the hassle of shipping it. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
