Amd Hammer Socket?

[E^vol]

aarrhhhh....I can't wait for Hammer...I need to "replace" my current system...now! I'm dying to get a KT400 mainboard...which is just around the corner, so how am I supposed to wait for Hammer (a few more months) ?
:cry:

[E^vol]

hey, does anyone know exactly which types / speeds of ram, that hammer will use ? cuz i'm upgrading in a matter of weeks, and i know that ddr400 isn't faster that ddr333, but if hammer will only use ddr400 and faster, then i'd be worth it for me to get ddr400 now...so that i wouldn't have to start from scratch again when i get a hammer...

actually, forget that, ddr-2 will be out by the time i get a hammer...hey, what's next ? screwdriver ? noo..POWERSAW ! lol

What's DDR-2? :rolleyes2

[E^vol]

DDR-II will start @ 400Mhz then go to 533Mhz and end with 667Mhz in 2004
DDR-III will run at 1Ghz by 2007

2007 ?? I can't wait around for that....

[ReSpAwN DeMoN]

That's very dumb. WHy can't they just keep it under the same name DDR? Or rename it QDR.

QDR and any flavor of DDR are quite different but, I wouldn't be in too much of a hurry to grab a "Hammer" setup as soon as they show up. I like to wait at least 8 weeks after introduction and see what if any bugs turn up and how they're fixed. ;)

That's definitly true and that was definitly my intentions. Kinda like the first year of the C5 vette they had a problem with the oil pan and it would leak oil out of the engine.

[E^vol]

ooops...that can't be good.....:laugh:

[HackofDestruct]

well when the hammer comes out it will definately be time for me to get a new computer so i should definately get QDR and the hammer

[Wiggo]

Just the same as now is the time for me. I've been beltin' this old AT SS7 server setup for some years nows. :zzz:

QDR is real? I thought I made that up.

[Wiggo]

Oh yes it's real, http://www.sysopt.com/articles/qdr-sram/ ;)

[E^vol]

that's sweet !
i can't wait for ODR ... lol
i wonder how long it'll be before ODR really does exist ?

[Wiggo]

Maybe by the end of the year is what the consortium is hoping but probably next. ;)
