    DDR2 worth the price

    My prescott runs at 800 fsb so is ddr 433 better than 1:1 DDR-400? Also I plan on overclocking And I was lookin at the 2x512 version of these sticks http://www.tomshardware.com/motherboard/20050124/ddr2_modules-06.html Does the comparison change if I can get the ddr2-533 to 667 or 710?

    New Cpu/Mobo

    Is that the 3100 Sempron @1.8GHz you got to 2.4? I cant get my 2400+ to overclock at all.

    New Cpu/Mobo

    I’m looking for a little advice on new hardware. I run a small home studio and I’m running out of processing power. When I record, CPU usage is fine but when I mix, it skyrockets. It’s because of all the FX plug-ins. This is what I have now… KT6 Delta-LSR...
