| 101887 | 2002-11-27 22:44:00 | ok my $0 . 02 worth . dispite what maginzines say there is a speed increase . how much of an increase depends on what programs you use (and OS) and ALSO what speed cpu you have . pc's will only run as fast as the bottleneck will let it . with slower cpu's eg under 1ghz the increase will be small, but the faster the cpu is the more performance you will gain by going to DDR . with SDRAM on a 1 . 4ghz cpu the cpu will be only going a 3/4 throttle due to the ram being a big bottle neck . however just remember the increase is subjective, to some it may be huge while others will consider the same increase small . however seeing that DDR is around the same price as SDRAM (i can buy 256 ddr cheaper than i can buy 256 sdram) sdram is really only for those with older slower pc's . |
