QUOTE(antonio @ Nov 27 2008, 08:58 PM) I do not meant amount of memory....what i meant was Speeeeedd...667 vs 800 on a Turion X2 RM-70 (Griffitn) Im asking this because where ever AMD Turion is concern, people would say, "DDR2 800 will be better for the AMD" but why??? er, it's a common rule. normally higher clock = faster speed. since 780G support 800mhz, its a waste if one opted for 667mhz. IMO, that phrase you quoted weren't even legit. This post has been edited by cracksys: Nov 27 2008, 11:12 PM |

QUOTE(antonio @ Nov 28 2008, 08:51 AM) Support 800mhz ram and runs at 800mhz Or Support 800mhz ram but runs at 667,mhz oso? it is like having a 865 chipset which supports DDR 400 but you Proc is only a 2.4Ghz running at 533mhz and not maximisng DDR400 because it runs at below speed???..... read up 780G spec, it says it support 800Mhz. re-arrange the example sentence. it doesn't make any sense .. and AMD ditched that old FSB crap long ago. QUOTE(Spade @ Nov 28 2008, 05:53 PM) i'm sorry but i can't figure out the connection between AMD and UMC producing a more fast-memory-friendly processor. care to elaborate? |

QUOTE(antonio @ Nov 29 2008, 12:24 AM) So u mean if i stuck a brand new 800mhz ram into my lappie the proc will run at 800mhz bus speed or whatever term AMD uses????? Gee thanks...maybe drop by lyp tomorow and get me a twin packs of 800mhz... yup. it is guaranteed to run at 800Mhz. noticeable change in real-life experience, not guaranteed. |

QUOTE(Spade @ Nov 29 2008, 01:08 AM) Bro, Pentium D never had UMC. Only Nehalem and its derivatives will have it. I really think you need to do some serious reading. you seriously need to re-read my post. i said .. almost all of the newer intel processor [core 2 duo, dual core, quad core] able to fully utilized DDR2 800mhz thanks to their higher FSB [starting from 800mhz] , so UMC factor doesn't fit in [UMC gain an upper hand only when K8 vs Netburst] (unless you're talking about Pentium D[which suck. i add this line so that no fag come in and said "Pentium D also quite new what!"]). eekk.. duh!

QUOTE(shady @ Nov 29 2008, 10:44 AM) I have posted some benchmarks on DDR2 667 and 800 on the first post. Although capacity is different, i dont think that matters. Everest might be synthetic benchmark but the numbers show clearly 800 is faster. The optimum speed for 780G DDR2 platform is DDR2 800. Since DDR2 667 and 800 both runs at CL5 default, at same latency, 800 will be a bit faster. If you have extra spare cash to spend, get two sticks of 2GB or just add another 1 or 2GB of DDR2 667. As for dual channel, switching to stick with higher speed is always faster than getting dual channel. That means getting a single 2GB DDR2 800 will be faster than two 1GB DDR2 667 sticks and of course save some power which translates to longer battery life. Hope this helps to clear out confusion. you're a confused person. no, getting a stick with higher clock speed will NOT ALWAYS be better than going dual channel. if you mean, getting a stick of 1066mhz of DDR1 over 2 stick of dual channel enabled of 400mhz DDR1, then yes, your statement is true. but, 1 stick of 800mhz ddr2 will always be slower (mathematically, 66% slower) than 2 stick 667mhz ddr2 running on dual channel because of doubled data transfer rate offered by dual channel tech. of course there is other factor, latency usually lower in lower clock ram, which, theoretically means faster operation. ultimately, it's down to the fact that real life experience won't change noticeably unless benchmark were to be use. care to share what ram model you've used for the benchmark?

^
higher speed + lower latency = expensive model = faster, it is not higher speed = low latency = all model = faster. straighten that up or understand what it latency first before pointing my wrong. i am merely correcting your general statement about dual channel but in no way, i disputed your benchmark results. no need to be so defensive.

QUOTE(Spade @ Nov 29 2008, 01:50 PM) With AMD I believe it is the Processor (UMC) that is the most important determinant factor on whether or not you can fully utilise the 800MHz RAM.[/b] i'm sorry but i can't help myself from replying. UMC is NOT the most important determinant factor on whether or not you can fully utilise the 800MHz RAM, it is the memory bus. this will be only absolutely true if we're talking about K8-netburst era. right now, as every platform in the market with HT2.0-3.0 ready and intel following AMD step integrating memory controlled into the processor, that statement is outdated. i didn't really want to argue to this extend. i just wanted to correct the statement of ..

QUOTE(Spade @ Nov 29 2008, 03:03 PM) Bro. For AMD, memory frequency (in this case 800MHz) is independent from HT (the one that replace FSB) thingy. I thought you already know that. Me too did'nt really want to argue to this extend over a 800MHz RAM but i just wanted to correct the statement. Just like you. HT is still limiting your running memory frequency, even though you probably won't reach that limit because HT2.0 bus were able to support up to 2000mhz. unless you're running a freaking 2000mhz ddr2 pardon me, i knew about HT replacing FSB but you clearly didn't understand what both really are. |

QUOTE(sachinvasudev @ Dec 4 2008, 02:00 AM) 133/134 is better, the processor is a bit faster (2.0 and 2.1) and you get extra hard disk space(250 and 320). So 133/134 is better ,the processor will make only about 5% increase in performance, but the extra 70 gigs of hardisk space is worth it, and the price is also same. You can see the full specs at http://h50198.www5.hp.com/Store/storeModel.asp?familyid=1770 did they mention about unchange air flow design? |

QUOTE(luotang @ Dec 5 2008, 11:26 PM) I saw that some of you having trouble of choosing HD3200 and HD3450 For me, as a desktop AMD780G chipset user, I don't know if the same thing will happen in notebook, but i would like to give me comment: I am using HD3200 built in graphic card and It is extremely enough for me, a normal user. So i will not choose HD3450 in buying notebook. My cpu temperature is always about 40+-3 degeree C. I am satisfy with that. However, I don't know if notebook will have the same temperature. only retarded have difficulties choosing between HD3200 and HD3450. and retarded do compare desktop with laptop. |
