I'm upgrading my entire system (everything but the ATX case and floppy drive). It's been a few years sence my last upgrade and I don't really keep up with all the new hardware. I found the chip I want which is a P4 / 2.4 Ghz / 512 cache / 533 FSB. Now I'm tring to find out what MB and ram I should get. From what I have read here so far the SiS 645DX chipset is pretty decent however theres quiet a few differant brands (and price ranges) to pick from and I'm a little confused as to what to get. Any suggestions would be welcome. Also I'm confused as weather I should get a single 512MB DDR or Dual 256MB DDRs. Would the dual give better performance? or do I need a certain kind of motherboard that would ultilize dual channel memory for it to make any differance? Also I'm wondering what type of DDR ram I should get, would DRR333 be the best choice or should I try to get DRR400? I'm going to be using this system primarly for gaming (First Person Shooter games) and 3D Level editing. I'm not going to be doing any overclocking cause I have no idea how. If anyone can answer some or all of these questions it would help me out a great deal.
