                      if it comes with cas 3 ram, you will slow it down with cas 4

                      my ddr1 is 500 cas 2.5, cas 4 sucks unless you can go to ddr2 800

                        (So CAS means Column Address Strobe right?) It refers to the number of cycles that need to occur between sending the first part of the address to the memory chip and then sending the second part. It's measured in clock cycles. I wasn't sure what cas was so I looked it up I am learning slowly but surely

                            there are more than 10 different parts to that cas stuff, key point is the
                            "wait states", wait is a dirty four letter word with computing, we want fast,
                            faster and fastest. My ddr1 500 cas 2.5 is way faster than ddr2 533 cas 4.
                            I would take a gig of fast ram anyday over 2 gigs of slow ram, the times will be few and far between when you will ever use that extra gig. Since I don't game and don't have a dual core, the optimal setup for me is 512 megs of fastest ram.

                                hope you have a copy of king kong, for the burn in/up bench

                                btw, keeping lots of cool air available to that case is critical, it's a price/performance leader but would double as a room heater on a cold night
