I have noticed that OcUK have now got AM2 processors available.....man i thought they weren't gonna be out for a while.....

/me thinks about waiting for conroe :confused:

or perhaps i'll just go AM2

I'm off to find some reviews......man I love my placement :D
 
yeah i was going to upgrade as well, to s939, but i think now i will wait till just before i go back to uni and hopefully all the bugs will be worked out and we will be good to go !

/me waits in anticipation....... :D
 
I just noticed that the Asrock 939SLI32-eSATA2 is upgradeable to AM2 (however, this part of the board is not available) does anyone know if OcUK is going to be stocking this part/where i can get it from ,if even it is worth getting.....?

Thanks :)

Wouldn't bother TBH it would be easier to get a new mobo.
I dont see what all the fuss is about with AM2.

Its just a new socket that has slacker timing ram that offers no performance increase over s939.

It's probably the DDR2 support that everyone is looking at, but then again is it really going to be worth me going AM2 (as its more expensive, plus i will be building my computer for final year uni work, photoshop, video, some 3d, gaming......
 
good point, and i suppose, current good (by that i mean expensive :D) cards will run dx10 games wont they......

man my sig sucks :(
