    I have stopped fussing over such small performance refinements; they are usually grossly exaggerrated after marketing anyways. But hey, nobody notices and real-world performance boosts, yet they still buy it. :)

    Definitely true Bog.
    I love it when people come on here stressing over CL5 versus CL6.
    I mean come on. The performance difference is not even noticeable in any benchmarks, let alone real life.

    The amount of memory is important not really the speed of it.

    Ive got a P4 system with 1.5Gb of Pc133 memory and another socket 478 board with 1.5Gb Pc3200 in it.
    Since both cpus are the same, performance differences can be made, and I lie you not, both systems perform exactly the same. Pc133 = Pc3200
    I surely cant tell any difference at all. Loading times and everything performs exactly the same.
