Id like to know what the fuss over all the DDR chipsets is
Ive looked over some of the reviews for DDR Athlon systems and for games anyways (this is a primarily a gaming forum) i find there to be so little difference i dont even see why anybody is interested in them (the other benchmarks seem more promising but i really dont care about flask/MPEG encoding to be honest )
Im more or less a newbie so if im offbase here i'd appreciate hearing why cause im gonna buy a system and i was gonna go with
Althlon 133
Via Kt133A chipset
512 MB SDRAM
I realize that the new chipsets and DDR memory arent that much moer expensive but why the hell should i pay even a hundred bucks for 5% performance increase which i think is negligible
Once again not trying to start a flame war, just hoping to get some clarification/verfication
Thanx
J lives again
PS by the way for a price difference im in good old Canada and our dollar is about half of yours so remember that when looking at prices
