You wont be disapointed with a GTS I'm using one with an X2 and are more than happy can't comment on the ati card mainly use nvidia(yep to DX10)

Perhaps an 8800gtx(640mb) most DX9 games like BF2 BF2142 WOW are base tested on nvidia 6 series vid cards so they preform very well with 8 series cards on high settings

Dual Xeon's would make a excellent gaming machine maybe even a bit of a over kill

Think you might have to consider a new vid card don't believe there would be any ddr2 motherboards that support agp MadDog psu is a 20 pin atx most new motherboards require 24 pin atx 2.0 power supply I think your best option would be to purchase second hand agp board most of your hardware is...

tzones my first thoughts were some earlier Del pcs used proprietary power supplys not industry standard these being designed for Del motherboards only different wiring on the 20 pin connector Good work getting your system up and running just the same... but it might be wise to shut down until...

If both mobos have same chipset you might get lucky You could strip back drivers on current instal to generic windows drivers then swap out motherboards reboot and load new drivers you will have to reactivate, windows will detect to many changes(about half way though instaling new drivers)...

Thanks blizz26 will give the flux a try

(that's got a little more horsepower.} Intel appear to be winning the horsepower race at the moment with a leg in the air so a intel system that supports quad core for future upgrades seems to be the choice of hard core enthusiasts. But if it is just a little more horse the 5600+ works well...

Perhaps on the next reboot you could check the temps in the bios 1800+ cpus particularly palomino cores run very hot a hsf refit with new thermal paste would eliminate heat as possible problem
