I am getting 256mb with the intel. It has an 865g mobo. So can i put in 256 more? With the AMD its only 128mb.

I'm sorry whizkid, that your thread has been abused and mistreated by certain people. AMD all the way, for me I dont use *mince-insides* i use AMD, you get more bang for your bucks.

Okay,for the time being you settle for 256mb ram , then later you can buy one more stick and plug to the mobo and have more ram. However the amount of ram make sure that its atleast ddr333 or ddr400. Now decide your processor first,then we will think of other things .

I'm sure the intel one has the DDR 400 SDRAM. Dunno much about the AMD though.

What is hyperthreading? Does it make much of a difference in performance?

I think 2800+ has 333mhz fsb , correct me if i am wrong . So with that a ddr 333 it can work with fsb to ram 1 : 1 which is obviously one of the best combination to work with.
This is the amd thing . Whiz,decided the final specs ?

yeah, it is... 400mhz bus.... if you are lucky to find an AMD with 400mhz FSB, you would have an even faster PC
you could also clock it

It might help if you told us what you will use your PC for. If you play games, then as a previous poster said, the graphics card is an important factor, as would be the memory speed. If you are going to use it only for downloading ringtones, then you shouldn't even be looking at such a high spec CPU.
Noise is another factor to take into consideration. AMD chips run hotter than Intel, and my graphics card has even greater cooling requirements. When I built my current PC a year ago, the cooling requirements were so high that the fans made it sound like Concorde taking off. Now, happily I have resolved those issues and it's as quiet as a slightly wheezy mouse.

Certainly fit one of these to a Geforce 3 or nvidia FX 5*** series graphics card. The best £10 I ever spent on my PC.
