Hiya, I'm on the verge of purchasing a 64bit x2 CPU, a 939 mobo and RAM etc. I was just wondering if the speed of the RAM had to be in sync with the processor as with my athlon I'm running today.

Kind Regards,
Mike.
 
Oh sorry, one more side question:

I like to make 3D renders; will I see a big difference in rendering speed from my athlon 2400xp @ 2ghz 133FSB/x15 with 1 gig of RAM at 333mhz/2.5CL when I upgrade to a dual core?

Thanks,
Mike.
 
I have no idea what you're asking in regards to your RAM. You need DDR400.

As for the other question.. yes. You will see a big difference.
 
pretty sure hes talkin about FSB.

i highly recommend gettin at least DDR400 RAM. if youre in the market for new RAM, i highly recommend this G.Skill. though of course youll need to find someplace for Europe.

and, yes, dual core (just A64 alone) will drastically speed up the process.
 
Thanks for your input; my posts often don't make a lot of sense because it's always 'been a long day' :)

Kind Regards
