Best way to upgrade?
...break your current PC.
For the record, I was not looking for porn when I discovered this article.
I have been looking for a new motherboard, since mine got fried last night while I was installing my new video card. Bad news is that my new video card was an AGP 8X to go with my motherboard. Now that I need a new mobo I am kind of stuck getting an AGP8x one instead of upgrading to PCI-Express, unless I want to sell my new videocard and buy an even more expensive one, PCI-E flavor.
I guess it will save me money in the long run. In the meantime, here is a pretty good link explaining just what, exactly, is going on inside your PC.
I'm using this post as a bookmark so I can find this again, since I am posting this from Paulie's PC across town.

That sucks. How did you fry it? What happened?
I think you were looking for porn and this is a poor excuse just like everything else on your blog as an excuse.
Well, the internet is for porn, after all.
...and chatting with your best friends (with benefits of course).
I fried it by being a dumbass, or so I thought. My flat panel monitor digital video cable has power running through it. When I went to plug it into the PC, it was plugged in. I think I touched it to the PC case before I connected it to the video port on the new card. I saw a small spark and that was the end of my trusty ASUS A7N8X deluxe.
I ordered a new chip yesterday (2.4 Ghz) so here comes the upgrade.
