Tomorrow i thoung on change my mainboard to a newer ove,
which allows me to use agp 8x and DualDDR

so, basicly i will change mobo and ram-type (running pc-133 now)

You'll definitely need to recompile your kernel (since your new mobo may have new chipset controllers and such). I wouldn't try and reinstall everything unless something goes horribly horribly wrong.

Make backups!
