Hi everyone,
This is my first time posting to this BB, and actually, the first time reading here!
Anyways, I'm planning on building myself a new PC, as I'm currently running a dinosaur K6/2 300mhz. I plan on purchasing an Athlon 1.4Ghz processor. I'm still undecided on what motherboard.
Keep in mind, I play alot of 3D intensive games, and I do some work in Macromedia Flash5.
My question is twofold:
1) Can someone reccomend a good motherboard for use with the Athlon 1.4Ghz processor? One with good performance in the above areas (games, graphics).
2) What's the difference in these memory types of DDR memory and RAMBUS? What is going to give me better performance. Perhaps someone could point me to an article that explains the difference in the two types of modules, as I've been unable to locate one.
Anyways, I hope I've made myself clear, and if someone can please help me out with suggestions/tips on my questions, I would really appreciate it. Thank you!
