S stuartturrell Solid State Member Messages 10 Apr 11, 2004 #1 have amd only got the one (3200+) processor that is run on a 400 fsb? Are they liekly to make faster ones on the 400 fsb?

OP OP S stuartturrell Solid State Member Messages 10 Apr 11, 2004 #6 so would it be worth waiting for 6 months or so for the 64 bit processors to settle down into a standard socket?

T The Merlin Daemon Poster Messages 1,432 Apr 11, 2004 #7 Hmm, well yeah, but your gonna pay alot of money for a 64 bit CPU If your on a budget then the 3200+ is a good choice

I read in CPU magazine today that because the AMD64 has the on-die memory controller which eliminates the Northbridge that you can't run RAM faster than 400mhz
