I know theres a bit of a stigma attached to buying a 754, but seeing as how it wont be upgraded for a good long while anyway is there any major advantage of buying 939? I can get SATA on a 754 board, and i dont need PCI express, at least not until i get a new graphics card, and that will be a good long while i think.
Im probably gonna go with another epox board, is the NF3 250 or the VIA chipset the better? Have my eye on this NF3 250. But any suggestions would be welcome. Paired with a clawhammer 3700+ (1MB cache version). That i can get for ~£300 as opposed to £400 for the 512KB 3800+ on a 939 socket. Clawhammers use standard DDR as well right? or would i need to get registered?
Cheers
