QUOTE(black^demon @ Dec 17 2007, 06:45 AM) As of current, NO. PCIE2.0 cards can still be used on PCIe 1.0 slots and vice versa. Its just like USB1.0 and USB2.0. You will only get lower speed if you are running PCIe2.0 cards on PCIe 1.0 slots. However, as off current, its not that significant. So, dont worry. At least by a few months..LOL.. |

Ram
Size>Speed But since 3.5gb is the limit for Xp buy some performance ram and oc it and Oc your proc also then there will be less bottleneck |

Extra Ram is always better and Extra Speed will always give you an extra Fps.But i dont think will lag the hell out of the card la tat only happens when like P4 pair with like 8800gt. |
