Upgrade the MB, of course, means a switch in CPUs, etc. Yes, NF4 boards have some advantages (access to more CPUs, dual channel memory, PCI-Express)
If you have the 6800 (non-GT) then that's a much bigger "hop" .. the 6800GTs have dropped below $300. That's a better bang. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Steve Tomporowski Sent: Tuesday, June 28, 2005 8:27 AM To: The Hardware List Subject: [H] NForce Boards for A65 Back in the dim reaches of the past ;-), I built my A64 system (3400+) with an NForce 3 board. Now I haven't played with this system a lot, but it really doesn't seem so fast and Doom 3 (which I built the system for), despite having a 6800 128 Meg (I think, may be 256M), calls for 640 x 480 (I really need to look into this). Anyways, the MB is the Neo Platinum, now I've been hearing about NForce 4 boards. Is there any reason to upgrade the MB? Some kind of problem I might have missed? Thanks....Steve
