Replacing Motherboard and Processor

2

I'm planning to replace the motherboard and processor on my Linux box. I know that the two need to be compatible with each other and the RAM, but are there compatibility issues to worry about with other parts?

Yes, that's what I'm asking. What parts need to be compatible? – waiwai933 – 2010-07-02T03:53:39.790

This is a difficult question to answer, but usually, as iDarine pointed out, everything from power supply to CPU, video card, memory, hard drives, etc. are impacted by your choice of motherboard. – None – 2010-07-02T05:49:02.240
