Nolips, have you flashed your MAX3's BIOS lately. The newer BIOS clears up loads of voltage problems among other things. Go here for more bits and bobs on it.

Yeah, got some stuff a couple of years ago from OcUK, no point getting stuff now though when I'll upgrade in the next weeks as everything is cheaper in Germany. AthlonFX for 440 quid anyone?

Asus K8V

80GB Samsung SATA drive

Radeon 9600 (to be decided)

I don't want to wait for socket 939, I simply don't have the patience, March is far away when your PC is not performing the way you want it to. Besides, I only upgrade every few years so futureproof technology is not too important to me. I also will not wait for the new nForce motherboards, the K8T800 was shitting all over the current nForce boards, instead of wasting time waiting for them I'll just get the K8T800 and basta.

How does rdram compare to ddr?

RDRAM aka RAMBUS. Nice and fast, but sodding expensive.

All P4 boards now use DDR as its far cheaper. RDRAM looked great, but the price was a killer. As you are running 768mb of it though, I wouldn't worry about it!

If you plan to get an Athlon 64, you're best off buying either the 3200+ or the 3400+, preferably the 3200 because it has the same cache as the 3400 and can be brought to 3400 speeds with little effort.  According to some benchmarks I've seen, the 3400+ actually outperforms the FX-51 in a few tests and its on the same level most of the time.

The 3400+ 64 rocks anyway. I'm only going to wait as my PC is quite satisfactory at the moment.

I've had no probs with the TwinMOS, but if your going to clock it, try to get a matched pair. Getting winbond and infineon chips is really going to piss off your MB. Only problem with TwinMOS I found, is that you can't run the timings that tight if your running a clocked FSB.

But hey, its cheap!

9600 - You considered softmodding a 9800 AIW? If it works, you'll save a packet.

And for everyone....

Take advantage of the stupidly weak dollar!

Å - $ = 1.8!

Hurrah for the US federal reserve! I've been going crazy on eBay recently. You can save hundreds!
