If you CPU is socket 939, AM2, or LGA775, you can find a motherboard with PCIe and your old RAM will work fine.
Ya thats just one thing I dont want to do at this point. My current machine is a P4 3.2ghz overclocked to a 3.4ghz. Really the only thing holding back my PC was the graphics card and I think I have a fast enough processor that I should just stick with my current machine with the best graphics card I can get for it. That should atleast hold me over for a while untill all the DX10 stuff comes out. When they get that all sorted out ill plan on building a new PC from there, and will go PCI-Express next time to give me more video card options.
