hi

sorry i haven't been around in awhile... i will finally get paid this friday so can buy my new rig...

but since then i have changed from wanting pc8500 to ddr3 1333 ? have many people tried it out yet? i know it is over priced but i only upgarde/make my pc every 12-18 months so don't mind spending a fair bit on nice pieces.

Atm it's no better than DDR2.

I'd wait a while until there's some really fast stuff available.

Also, you can get WAY more memory for the same money or less. DDR2 is still very cheap or, it is in the US. I would hope the EU/UK is similiar.

i her that, i could get 6gb of pc8500 for the same cash, its just like going to to the supermarket and buying milk for next saturday and realising it will be gone off by then lol. + you can overclock the 1333 to 1850 i believe can't you?
