goyangfc Posted November 17, 2005 Posted November 17, 2005 I'd wait till M2. Isn't M2 supposed to support DDR2? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigred Posted November 17, 2005 Posted November 17, 2005 M2 is no where NEAR ready... it's at LEAST a year, more than likely 18 months before M2 hits. personally I think anyone who is holding off buying a new processor due to M2 is a total f'n fool. why don't you wait till 128bit processors come out? or how about the K9 core? or 1gb of L2 cache? besides that fact DDR2 proved itself to be useless performance wise on the P4's, why would you expect any different on AMD's side? oh that's right everyone is just going to "wait" for M2. I'm not holding my breath on M2 ever coming out. I'm betting it's phased out before it ships. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamikaze_Badger Posted November 17, 2005 Posted November 17, 2005 (edited) Especially with a release date being two years from now. Given the advancement of technology, we'll have much faster stuff then. Who's up for Half-Life 3 on SLI'd GeForce X 900 Ultras?

oralpain Posted November 17, 2005 Posted November 17, 2005 True cache isn't a great deal of importance, Think about how all P4 600s are 2MB versions yet aren't that much better then the 500s The reason for that is the increased cache latency with the 600 series. If latency was kept the same, there would have been more of an improvement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

galla2k4eva Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 Will these new processors being released drop the prices of others dramatically?? I would much prefer a A64 4000+ to a 3500 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
