Chris PC - All this "advise" form the forum is well and good. I'm sure that everyone posting hopes you succeed in your plans. But the one thing you should do before committing yourself, is check out a website that is awesome! tomshardeware.com
He benchmarks everything, and has no subjective opinions.
you get a much more balanced piciture if you look at the other sites also. If all 3 says the exact same thing then it a good chance it true. other wise do some research on your own.
Personally I think Anandtech and xbitlabs are far surprior to tomshardware
The:
OCZ 2GB (2 x 1GB) PC3200 Dual Channel Platinum Series EL-DDR CAS2
Is £5 more expensive than the:
Corsair 2GB DDR XMS3200C2PT TwinX (2x1GB) CAS2
Is there any perormance increase?
Also, i will change my motherboard IF anyone can give me any good reasons why the Fatal1ty is rubbish .
My friend has been using abits for a while and has had no problems and excellent customer service.
I dont mind paying a little extra for a really good mobo.
