yup 1gb x2 is better
 
With 512MB x 4, your RAM will be set to 2T command rate, which is slower.

With 1GB x 2 , your RAM can operate at the 1T command rate, which needless to say is faster.

even venice can't do 1T ??
 
Well, how soon do u plan to upgrade?
Either get the 4400 or 4800. 4200 and 3800 and 4600 are crap with 512kb * 2 L2 cache while 4400 and 4800 have 1 mb * 2 L2 Cache.
If you cant get a 4400 then youd rather get a 4000 or 3700.
If advise you to get the 4400+ and atleast a 7800 GT / GTX or wait for the x1800 xl.

Unlike pentiums, cache hardly matters on AMD. Else no one would be buying venices :P.
 
Well 1MB cache does helps but that does not mean x2 3800 and X2 4600 are crap.

extra 512KB cache is like 200Mhz more performance. And these two cover that up with speed.

Stacker - P180.
Its no competition, one is pure performance cabinet and other is classy cabinet.
If you are geek you will go for Stacker
make that a (deaf) geek :ohyeah:
my p180 with 4 120mm fans running is faaar silent than any cabby...
i luv the stacker n had thought of buying it, but i do not oc my machine much, so have no need for the cooling capabilities/xtra smps/xtra space the stacker offers.....
u can make good use of a stacker though :)
i mostly use my pc for music/movies/games, so a silent cabby is a must...
 
Thats what i said. Two are aimed at different buyers. And nah stacker is not noisy but ya it may not be as silent as P180. I dont care that much. As you said i am deaf geek. :P

I watch my DVDs on my xbox :P
 
Me like the P180 very much but if i were to go for cabby i would go in for Stacker like funky said... Its huge... And i have big hands... P180 is too small for them... Also i am not too sure but i dont think Stacker makes much noise...

Though they arent available but the best cabbies to get are the Lian Li's... Total Aluminium... All Industrial look... Man do they look neat...
 
guys..ive frozen..ive got the config n all ready and what to order from whom..but i am not able to just go ahead and order..dunno wats wrong..the kanjoos inside me is halting me..ive just ordered the stacker cabinet.. ::no: :huh: :S :( :ashamed:
