MSI 845 Ultra ARU Board

[Kshitiz_Indian]

I know i am sounding ridiculous and stupid o this one, but please help.


I am planning to buy a new motherboard, i have seen many reviews of this and it sayd its very much overclocking friendly, all the features are great, but one thing that is bugging me up is that how much onboard graphics memory is there, which is not written anywhere.

Someone please help me and tell how much maximum graphics memory it can have. Or does it even have onboard graphics ( i think it should, since my current mobo does and its way behind of the intel i845d chipset )


Plz someone help.

I already had that link kev, but the thing is that it doesnt tell me how much onboard graphics capacity it has, thats my concern

 

[Kev]

Do you think that there's maybe a reason that it doesnt mention onboard graphics anywhere in the spec?

to be honest if your going to think about overclocking dont go MSI, look at the ASUS or DFI boards. what socket is your cpu?

 

[Kev]

Well I'd hope he has a Socket 478 cpu

My personal recomendation is dont waste your money on an old board like that, dump the cpu and buy something better.

 

[langerrox]

hmm well its that old i dont know anything about it

 

[Kshitiz_Indian]

LOLS my socket is 478 .

@Kev, i willl soon dump it all and buy a new mobo and cpu and gc once my 10'th grade exams finish, until then i would have to do with onboard graphics and 512 mb RAM


So i was saying, i saw a review somewhere that a p4 1.6 processor was overclocked to about 2.4 without probs on this board, thats why i chose it, but plz can someone tell me about pnbooard graphics

overclocking isnt easy like that, it depends on so many more factors. High quality RAM, CPU steppings, CPU core and CPU default clock.
Is there any real point in upgrading because if you do you'll be sending $$ that could buy quality parts for a current system not an old one..

It doesnt have onboard graphics.

:cry :cry . Can anyone tell me about the ASus p4b ?

 

[Kev]

The P4BP-MX has integrated graphics but the P4B553-MX doesnt
