Hey guys i want your opinion on some buying related stuff.
I'm considering buying a Barton processor. I also need to buy
ram. these are my options, either i buy a Barton 2500+ or 3000+,
and i buy 512mb ddr 333 http://store.yahoo.com/ocsystem/foncoliexgam.html

Or i wait a while, and buy a Barton 3200+ ? that has a 400mhz fsb.
And then i would buy ddr 400 ram.

So the difference is that the 333 ram runs at a slightly lower timing,
and is less expensive. The barton difference is the 333 compared to
400 and is also cheaper. I'm just thinking, will the 400 version be worth
it over the 333, cuz the 400 version will cost like a 1000 bucks.
And the 2500 now costs like 200 dollars.

Ok please let me now asap.

Thanks
