hello

if you had to choose between a :

Intel 3.0E socket 478
with DFI 875-B motherboard

or an

Intel 3.4 socket T
with an intel i915p motherboard
link mobo

if both systems are stock,both at 3.0ghz and 800fsb,wich one is the fastest?

i know, the intel wont oc a millimeter but i want to know about stock performance?

greetings and thx

The 3.4 Ghz will be faster.

The new socket makes no performance defference at equal clock speeds. The Intel board has the budget minded version of the intelchipset, but that makes less influence.

So the 3.4 GHz will be faster.

so if start using this, it will be more futureproof ( i only have to buy OC mobo) then the 478 setup?

cuz it has pciX right?
thx very much,

There are socket 775 boards around with PCI-E (PCI - express)

(PCIX is server / High end 64 Bit PCI)

It certainly isn't slow, and yes more futureproof then 478 (that's end off life). But an A64 setup will run cooler AND faster. For -probably - a lower price.

yes, if you "have" to go with Intel go with LGA775 + PCIe

but if i can get a 3.4 and mobo for only 110€...the choice is easely made right?
