hi im newer to the overclocking game dont get me in no newbie its jsut im getting into like the aspect of it all more indepth i would say so it means more to me and bad thing happened is my mobo has dual channel but i put the dual channel in now it broke on me idk y i just cant fix it but tahts another story but is moving up to an am2 worth it? i mean seriously i would love if asus made this board(describe at bottom) but it would make lots of money since us 939 users would most definatly upgrade
the board if it had
939 socket
ddr2 800 standard dual channel
2 pci 16x slots
nvidia 590 northbridge, or via im not an ati fan at all
with those setting im more than sure any 939 user would love to upgrade to having faster memory i mean to go from 400 to 800 thats a huge jump in my book and would open the door to ALOt more oc'ed athalon 64's like the 3200's and i believe it would push for more advances in cooling such as stronger better fans, then the power aspect owuld change as in power supplys even though they are up there already and i believe that yes ddr3 is next obviously and i cant wait for that to hit the market in oh say probably 5 years (not talking about video cards) teh video cards are outragious now with ati starting gddr4 its only a matter of a few years where we are on teh brink of some major increases in pc's here but with ddr2 939 those mobos would sell like hotcakes in my honest opinion because you wont need a 940, am2 socket (getting new cpu) which if you spent a pretty penny on a fx60 and you can get better memory it would be a jump well worth it instead of the fx62 for like 690$ which is almost 200$ more and i ask if you just spend 450$ ish on a new processor and wanted more overclocking ability and faster memory would u want to spend maybe 650 more for close to teh same processor? just for more speed? some of you say yes but in my case which im in highschool and poor i can bearly afford this stuff im like 3 years behind technology with just getting pci express to me it would just mean less money and more speed for an easy low price
