Im currently looking how to spend £1000 on my next gaming rigg.
All i need really is cpu, motherboard and memory.

Im being looking at DDR3500 but after reading and article this morning on the P4 3.6 CPU,toms hardware it seems the new "prescott" P4 suits RD PC1066 so im now unsure on which to use!!!

Any ideas or other places to read about this?

Si

Thumbs up

if you looking for fastest of the fast memory, then go for RD RAM RIMM PC4200 (@1066MHz). they are similar to PC1066 but PC4200 got a 32-bit interface, so no need to install them in pairs.

you will need a m/board to suppose the 32-bit PC4200 RD RAM RIMM. at the moment, check out asus P4T533.

DDR is still good and cheaper than the new 32-bit PC4200, so it's all depends on how much you wanna spend.

yeah cheers i found a good site this morning, but they said the Precott will run @ 166mhz therefore new motherboards are going to be needed so the 533FSB will be out dated already

technology will always change, so if you need a PC now, just get the latest and the fastest stuff you can afford.

at the moment, go for the intel 845PE chipset and DDR.
