Pioneer (B) DVD-120S 16x/40x IDE Slot-In (Bulk) This would cost me 581.44€ @ K&M Elektronik What do you guys think? Is it possible to buy a PIV system with +- the same budget that would give me better OC results? What should I buy then? case : Coolermaster ATC-200C-MX2 :: € 189 or Coolermaster ATC-201C-SX2 :: € 209 Does anyone know the differnce between them ? thnx a lot |

| the AMD system is fine. a P4 will overclock better but you'll pay the price for it! |

| But then I have to be lucky to buy 2 sticks with those winbond chips (don't know the name exactly) I know how the cases look, but the one with black is cheaper than the not-painted-one. And I can't figure out why. And I'll buy my case @ colorcase/DURON |

| gvd, they don't sell twinmos I'll have a look @ funcomp mod : 256MB DIMM DDR PC400 TwinMOS € 49,99 or 256MB DIMM DDR PC466 TwinMOS € 69,99 And you're certain I'll get corsair-like results? mod 2 : weird ****, seems like I can't order 2 sticks of twinmos pc400 at the same time! And if I buy the pc466 it costs all together 579.94 € SO, is the twinmoss PC466 better than the corsair PC400 C2 ? |

| TwinMOS PC3200 is mostly Mtec chips. And even the BH5 model won't be as good as corsair. I got them and they run 400MHz 2-2-2-6 but with quite some effort. (2.9 Vdimm and not 100% stable) The upside is, they can go pretty high in MHz on EZ settings and are loads cheaper |

| Corsair it is then. Would there be a big difference in overclocking between the 2800+ & 2500+ ? |
