this is solely for performance? i got a 50" 1080 tv for this lol.. that alone was almost 2 grand.. is it better to run 4 512 rams than 2 800's? it's still gonna be slower.. 512 is 512 right? cant go above what it goes..
easy to see why dizzy's is better though.. :D

Having a great computer is not best thing in life.

My mate has the worst PC for daily use. Its an Emachine 420. It wont run Photoshop, 3Dmark06/05/03, Hardly any games etc.

His specs are-

Intel Celly 478 2.6Ghz, 8k Lvl 1 cache, 128k Lvl 2 cache
512Mb DDR-266 (was 256mb)
Integrated Intel Extreme 32Mb
80Gb IDE HDD
Unbranded mobo (maybe intel?) No overclocking options, apparently there are only 10 options you can adjust, max.
Integrated sound

SO yeah, its pretty dire. He is apparently upgrading to C2D though.
