i am asking the parents for a cpu/mobo/ram upgrade for xmas. currently i have:
amd athlonxp 2800+
abit nf7
6800gt
2x512 Crucial pc2700
And I plan to ask for:
amd64 3500+ socket 939 (90nm)
abit AV8
2x512 Corsair Value Select PC3200
My question here is if the pc3200 is really necessary. How much of a noticable difference is there between the two? To me, noticable is is 10-20+ fps at 1024 res with 4aa/8af on. I do not overclock at all, so any potential i may lose i don't care about. Is the pc3200 truely better then my current pc2700 to warrant the $150 price?
