needa upgrade computer just got some questions
m/b booklet says it can handle upto 3200+ amd processor so can i still get 32 bit processor??
aswell the memory its says can handle upto 2gb of pc2700/2100 but only can get 3200 will it still work??
umm..
i think thats all
if i needa new m/b wot do u suggest i wanna get an amd processor
thankss

I run my own computer business. The RAM will work fine.. itll run at the slower speed.. if you want the AMD3200+ you will have to hunt around a bit.. it isnt the newest CPU out anymore.. try the swapmeets?

Good luck :thumbsup:

yeah with the memory if you put a stick of pc3200 in with a stick of pc2700 it will slow down to the slowest piece, ie. the pc3200 chip will run at pc2700 instead. :thumbsup:

check out www.staticice.com.au

I've heard MSY is good..

MSY are fine if you know what you want to buy. Don't expect customer service from them though, and they're difficult if you get something DOA and try to take it back. But they're still generally the cheapest place in Sydney. For some parts, Umart and IT Estate can be cheaper. Oh and just because MSY have a part listed on their pricelist doesn't mean they have stock of it - make sure you ring in advance (not that they ever answer their phone!) and have an alternate part of two in mind (ie brand changing etc) in case they don't have what you want. Oh and they won't sell you a processor individually without you buying a motherboard. Beats me why.

yeh i need a new m/b if i upgrade any way
i hrd by the end of this month when the new intel comes out AMD will drop by upto 50% for there processors so ill just wait till then and get dual core!
