Hey, i recently got the D915PBL board from intel with their 550 3.4ghz P4 and Xp pro. My question is does this board support ddr? or is it only ddr2? I cant afford ddr2 so what would the performance be with regualr ddr on a ddr2 board like this. Someone told me that it will work just not very well, is this true.
Next is, what kind of pci-e card would you reccomend, the 6800 im guessing or should i just wait for somthing else.
Finally, should i just sell off all this stuff (purchased through retail edge for 200 bones so i could make some good money) and keep my overclocked 3.0 on my abit. With the money i make, i could buy a new video card. Just unsure what to do, wether its worth keeping the intel board and buying new parts (memory?? and gpu) or just keeping my existing setup and possibbly buying a new gpu down the line. Are their any exciting deals on 6800's i should know about that may be worth while.
Sorry for all the questions, any info would be awesome, thanks
Rob
