Half Kingmax, half no name is going in it.
I just hope I can figure a way to use them the I use to in my
P4.
PC2100 running with PC2700.
All of this ram has been tested to go way over it's specs.
The PC2100 tested at over 2700 speeds.
The PC2700 tested at over 3200 speeds, had it running @ PC3500 speeds.
If I was planning on a lot of Video gaming, that would hurt my speed in it.
But I'm not planing on a lot of video gaming.
Video Capture is what I want to do, and for speed in re-encoding.
I can use the P4 on a network. then I can still do other video capture @
the same time.
My Maxtor 250GB is going in it, the 160GB is going in it.
CD-Rom dvd rom
Lite-on-buslink Old drive now, it will be in the P4 just to install Windows.
Sony DRU-510 DVD +- R RW
I might only format what I need to, so all the files I already have on the
AMD are still there.
The PC2100 is 256 total - 128 x 2
The PC2700 is 512 total - 256 x 2
My Creative Labs Sound Blaster Audigy 2 is going in the AMD
My Slow, Rage Pro 128 (AIW) with only 32 Megs is also going in it.
Though, it might be worth my while to get a used 3D labs tv card, it
won't help when it comes to a lot of Photo's & stuff to run Win98se.
Win98se will only use up to 64 Megs or so, if any more, not by a lot.
