Thread: Upgrading motherboard and will install 10.04

i have older amd motherboard on 5 years old. plan replace board new board supporting intel i-7 chips. question have experience particular motherboards , support in linux, 10.04?

looking @ major boards, gigabyte, asus, evga, msi, , intel. problems these boards? how support? appears @ least evga seems give personalized reply queries while others typical boilerplate.

note there quite few versions of intel i-7 chips (looking @ newegg). intend work in graphics, video editing in particular , video hd, suspect need powerful chip. have no intention of game playing. observations here more knowledgeable intel chips. newegg pages on various i-7 variations not helpful.

btw, installing new hard drive , 64bit ubuntu. probably, include windows xp few programs in windows need.

any newer mb should support ubuntu. replaced mines (see sig) , had no issues.
