This is the Nvidia 6800 geforce GT it has a 512 instead of 256 and only 16 pipes
$350
Which card is faster? Which is overall better give me all details please.
Does Rpm really matter?
I don't know if i should get a expensive 10,000rpm hardrive with 8mb cache or a 7200rpm with 16mb cache does rpm make a big difference? Does cache?
Memory-
Is it compatable? I found 2gig(2X1gb) dual channel ram at PC2 4200. My motherboard(the highest speed of ram i could find for a mother board) is only
The highest i could find was PC3200 it was for AMD. Can anyone tell me what to do?
Please help thanks!
