can i connect two motherboards together?

You can't on any motherboards i've ever heard of & i don't know why you'd want to either.\n\nYou can get motherboards which can take 2 processors (dual core) & 2 graphics cards (dual core) though

Sure, I run 3 SATA drives and 2 PATA drives, no problemo. Needless to say, your motherboard must have a SATA port on it or you need to buy some sort of controller.

Yes, if the mobo is rated for that capacity. Why the 2 CD-ROMs? I'd go with at least 1 DVD-RW. The DVD-RW will give you more flexibility.

A new motherboard will almost certainly cost less than a PCI-to-PCI adapter - and anyhow, where would the cards physically go?\n\nYou also may wish to consider using USB or Firewire/1394 peripherals instead of using PCI cards.

try the AMD website. I did this for intel and it worked well.

I wouldn't install them together.  I would check the motherboard specifications and see which one is right for the motherboard.  It is never good to install to differnet speeds.  Also, RDRAM has to be installed in pairs, meaning you have to install 2 chips together of the same speed.

The straight forward answer is you may be able to use two different sizes of DIMMs (256MB, 512MB or 1GB), but you can't mix different types or speeds of DIMMS (such as 266MHz, 333MHz, or DDR-2100, DDR-2700, etc.).  You will need to always match the memory type or speed in "MHz" for them to work.\n\nSome motherboards require you to install two identical RAM modules at a time.  The best thing to do is ask a RAM distributor online such as www.buymemory.com.  They will tell you exactly what RAM type you need and can save you quite a bit on memory versus any retail store.

no, they are interchangable with any of the same type motherboard

Sure you can! Just make sure you know your motherboard's socket number so you don't get one that doesn't fit.

I'm not 100% sure what your question is...but you can only use a PCI Express video card with a PCI Express ready mother-board.  You can use a PCI videocard (but not PCI Express) with any mother-board that has an open PCI slot, but you may have to turn off the onboard videocard in the BIOS if it has onboard video.

The mobo should be your starting point. RAID is supported by the mobo, not the drives. The drives just plug into the mobo. You can expand your array by using a PCI RAID card in one of the slots. \n\nhttp://www.mysuperpc.com/motherboard.shtml

Yes if your motherboard has 2 pcie slots and supports SLI you can... but for what 2 of those cost you could pick up a single 7950gt which has 512mb of ram and is probably faster then 2 7600gt's.

Simply enough, if you have the money for it, do it. It's called SLI, Nvidia came out with it. An SLI capable motherboard will have 2 pci-express slots, in which you can put 2 video cards and connect them with a bridge (DON'T get the ones that claim to work without a bridge, through software, they're not nearly as good) Even if you don't want to spend the money right now, I suggest still getting an SLI capable motherboard and one SLI capable video card. You can always use just one for now and get another later, if you do.\n\nEdit: Guys, we're not talking about have 2 monitors, we're talking about using two video cards in tandem, for increased performance in graphics-heavy things, games especially. It's called SLI, look it up.

yes you can, because i am doing it. for my comp i have a pci sata raid card that allows me to do this, some mobo's have an integrated sata and you can plug into there. plug in, power on, and go. of course with my sata hd i had to use a special program on cd that came with it to set it up properly. but no problems so far, nor do i expect any.

There is no two slot for putting your processor. You can use HT technology processor which virtually creates two processor on one computer.

First of all you need to understand the difference between Dual-Processor (having more than one processor on the motherboard) and Dual-Core, which has two Processor "Cores" residing on a single chip.\n\nYou can go to dual-processor if your motherboard contains two processor slots, (not likely unless you already have two processors in the machine).\n\nDual Core requires its own slot type, and will not fit in the single Core slot (diffent pin sets)\n\nSo, the answer is no, but at least now you will know, why.

if u have that mobo you also have a user's manual. read it carefully, all is described how to connect all the case cables to the mobo.
