    What kind of performance gain should I expect?

    I'm currently using an AMD XP 2100+ with 1.5 gig of PC2700 RAM. I'm thinking about upgrading to the AMD Barton 3200+ with 1.5 gig of PC3200 RAM. What kind of performance gain should I be expecting? 25% increase, 35% increase, and etc.. Thanks -Amputater

    SVC Golden Gate + Sunon 39CFM enough for 1600+ @ 2000+??

    Overclocking, 256mb or 512mb PC2700??
