    Is ddr2 really worth buying? I've seen benchmarks and numbers are only higher by a point or two. AMD isn't going to pick up the technology until 2006 and I want to build a computer that will last a while. If I do choose DDR2 I really limit the motherboard choices. One more question, is there any motherboard comparable to the P4P400SE deluxe but with LGA775?

    I would say....no, I only say that becuse of it's cost, if i were you i would buy the fastest ddr your board can take, as for the P4P400SE question sorry i dont know.

    I would totally build an AMD if they had DDR2, does it matter? What kind of performance gains will there be when AMD goes DDR2?
