845PE - 850 - 7205

If one was going to upgrade to a P4/3.06 and already had 512 megs of ddr pc2400 memory and wanted to get the fastest motherboard avaliable which one or the above chipsets would be the way to go? Where can you find Granite bay for sale and are they basically all the same as far as performance? Thanks, Dusty

Granite bay is the fastest chipset right now, provided you use it's dual channel memory, but the price keeps most individuals from buying it. If you don't have 2 seperate memory modules though, then the performance would be similar to the 845PE. Googlegear has 4 different boards in stock, just type 7205 in the search field at the top to find them. Peace.
