Which pc3200 ddr400 setup would perform better?

option 1:
two 2x512mb 2-2-2-5-1T rams

or

option 2:
one 2x1gb 3-3-3-8-1T ram

??

because option 1 has two dual channel rams, it would be at 2T while option 2 would be at 1T...

which setup would you prefer for the 939 socket??

yea.. I know those parts belong in the stone age..

lol.. ya my desktop is like 6.5 years old..

3 years ago, I had the choice of a new desktop or a laptop. I chose the laptop so I could go on RS while I'm in a lecture. LOL

now my desktop is old and I need to upgrade it so that I can play Starcraft 2

I thought about getting a new desktop, but it would not be a wise investment at a time like this in my life.


I never use my desktop. I'm always on my laptop doing some stupid assignment.
I don't think it would be worth paying $1000+ on a new computer which depreciates like crazy so that I can play starcraft 2. I think spending $50 on another gig of ram is the smarter choice.

When school starts, I won't be playing any games until the break.

I don't need a computer to make a living at the moment.

I'll probably get a new desktop after I graduate, so I will have to do whatever I can with my current stone age setup.

win 98 or win xp?
onboard video or AGP?

I have a setup using 1.5gb DDR400 single channel on P4 (winXp / onboard). It feels much quicker than 2 x 512mb.

btw, you can build a super budget dual core E3300 PC that can play SC2 for $250cdn.
