I'm going to be upgrading my computer soon, upgrading my existing 754 pin AMD 3000+ CPU and my 768MB of RAM. I want to upgrade my CPU to an AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200 AM2, and my RAM to 2 sticks of Corsair 1GB DDR2 SDRAM. Therefore, if I want to upgrade I'll have to buy a motherboard that takes AM2 pin CPU's.

I've had a look on Aria.co.uk and I think I've found what I would like, but I'm not sure if it is all compatible. For example, will that motherboard take both DDR2 SDRAM and also the AMD 64 X2 4200 AM2?

Also, I have an Nvidia 6800GT that is AGP. To my understanding, most of the newer motherboards only take PCI or PCI-E? Is that correct? I do not want to buy a new graphics card, and I was wondering if there is an AM2 compatible motherboard that also takes AGP graphics cards?

New CPU - http://www.aria.co.uk/ProductsList.a...200+retail+AM2

New RAM - http://www.aria.co.uk/ProductsList.a...+1gb+xms2-5400

Everything would work except the AGP.

That board only has a PCI_E slot. No AGP.
