Take a look around tpu. Not many of us actually need the upgrades at all. We like benchmarking and comparing systems around here.

Wow, I never knew there were s370 boards with DDR. Nice setup actually.

Aye -- with some very hard to find boards with a Via 266 Pro chipset. The RAM didn't even run much faster than PC133, but it was cool being able to use the cheaper/more future-compatible DDR chips. :D

It was the cream of the crop, for it's time. :laugh: Those Tualatin PIII chips were what they based the Merom/Dothan chips off of, and they in turn produced the Core2 chips. That Tualatin PIII-S was much faster clock-for-clock than P4's -- it was weird.

Hey, I just wanted to finally move into the 21st century. :laugh:

k, so I somehow misread that and got "beverage protection" :roll:

it's nice going from an entry-level card to a mid/high-end card isn't it?
