Athlon xp+ pc133 sdram good?

hi,
Since I already have 512 pc133 sdram I don't want to buy DDR ram so far. How much % of performance of the cpu will be lost when I use 133 sdram? If it's too big I'll just buy T-bird which is cheaper.

LoL......this is DEFINENTLY a case of the misinformed....

It will be no different witht he T-Bird.......any chip will benefit more from DDR ram over SDRAM, even a Duron....
What's your current motherboard ???

Performance difference od SDRAM to DDRAM is between 5% - 15% depending on the application, game, etc.

What you CAN do however is buy a Motherboard that supports both (but cannot be used simultaneously) like the ECS K7S5A with the SiS735 chipset OR the Asus A7A266 Motherboard witht he Ali MAGIK 1 chipset (try to get Revision 'C' as it has better performance) that way you can use your current 512MB of PC-133 SDRAM than later on IF YOU WANT, you can buy DDR for your machine and stick it in there......

One of the best overclockable and performance.

Good or Bad have no meaning at all, depends on what your point of view is.

The Athlon XP generates less heat at the same speed T-Bird.

So exactly is this SiS 735 chipset a new thing? And why is it hard to believe he has one?
