its simple as tht :hap2: ..............hav heard a lot that both max out at about 2.5 or 2.6 at stock cooling......
So which 1 to buy if ones on a tight budget.... :mad:
Just wanna make sure wht i heard is true. :huh:
 
3200 for the higher multiplier .. low fsb will give you a higher clock speed

for a 3000+ you need 290 or so htt to cross 2.6 gigs while on a 3200 you only need 260htt
 
hmm think a winchester can handle 2.6 gigs (260htt) but its touch and go if a 3000+ can reach 290htt and be stable.. so its your call if you want to oc ;)

if you are on a tight budget by all means go for the 3000+
 
hmmm....thts what am takin about..
well its not entirely about budget :hap2: ....guys at AT nd guru's forums hav done bout 2.7 with a DFI board :cupidon: with stock...with a 3000+
so is 3200+ really worth the extra dough :huh:
 
i've done 2.7 on my a8v+300+ as well :p so no biggy really but am sure it wont be all that stable.. all i did was run super pi

so what board are you getting ? if its a good ocing board get the 3000+ otherwise 3200+ to be on safe side
 
U knw i was gonna get the dfi board in 754 but thn am not a frequent upgrader...so thot of savin for a wile nd go 939 .....now i dont knw which 1 to get....
probably a8v or the new ati1 if its here in mumbai...dnt hav time to inquire ;)
 
Venice is cmin nxt month.....
but does it offer ny real performance increase....
also wht will be the price??? :huh:
definately above the winchesters cuz of SSE3
 
upgraded memory controller.. so you can use 4 double sided dimms without any reduction in speed ..

512mb*4 could now become common place on a64 :lol:
 
Amd 64 3000+ 9x multiplier
Amd 64 3200+ 10x multiplier

If u wanna reach the same mhz on both cpus the 3200+ need only medicre ocing rams while on 3000+ u need to have a bit hardworking ram :eek:hyeah:
 
As per the 3000+ to achieve high clocks, you dont need good performing RAM (thats what memory dividers are for), you just need a board capable of being stable at high HTT speeds.
