    700m memory question

    I have done a search and I see that everywhere and everyone recommneds DDR PC2700, CL=2.5, NON-ECC, DDR333. My question is, if the fsb is 400mhz, why get the 333mhz speed of the pc2700? Wouldnt I be better off upgrading to some pc3200 that supports 400mhz? eh?

    XP-120 and MSI Neo2

    We have the same board....... How is it possible that yours fits and mine doesnt? I am kinda thinkin about not bending the pipe and returning it. I planned on mounting an aluminum fan to the top if it but Im worried about a weight issue. I dont like the way a huge 120mm plastic fan would...

    Yea i gave them a call. They anly carry a 1'x1' piece. I need a 2'x1. Thanks though. Ive had my antec for a year and half. So far so good. Ill prolly consider changing over the fans on the inside and powering them by a rail (non fan only). Right now I just spent 80$ on fans for my case, so...
