I was just asking as a general question. For a build I'm making I am getting probably 1066 speed ram and was curious what the difference was between DDR2 and DDR3 at that speed.
I read somewhere around these forums that Tri Channel cannot be used with AMD CPUs. Is this correct? So if I had to choose from 1066 DDR2 and 1066 DDR3 would it benefit me any to get DDR3? The price difference for 4GB of each is $15-20 bucks.
Yeah I'm willing to order all the parts and put it together then just wait till DX11 comes out and pushes down the price of the current cards if it makes a huge difference, will it? Im deffilently gonna go with the 4850 now though over that 4830.
Hey everyone, I'm putting a budget build for school. Doing just mid range gaming (company of heroes, call of jaurez, cs:s) and some home music recording. I'd like to stay between $600 and $700, I don't need a monitor or an OS. I plan on gaming at 1680x1050 This is what I have so far.

I know DX11 is coming up soon so I may just get everything then wait a bit for DX11 to drop before I grab a video card, I can off till then to get a better deal. Also, that CD/DVD drive can burn Dual Layer discs right? Does everything look good? Any suggestions?
I had windows crash on me after I installed an update the other night, no matter what I tried my laptop just would not reload windows. So I reinstalled Vista and now I can't get it to work really. It won't recognize any wireless, putting the ethernet cable in doesn't help. Also, I had my security password key on my laptop for my wireless internet. I have 2 other pc's connected to wireless and I'm curious if somewhere on them can I grab that key so I can have it again. Thanks for the help!
My PC will turn on and load up windows and right after that the screen goes blank for awhile then just turns off completely! Any idea whats wrong? I've never had this happen before.
