Hey guys, I know this has been asked before but I want to troll for more opinions. Thinking about building a new system soon. Should I wait till the end of the month for Asus to release their MB that supports both DDR and SDRAM or should I just make the jump now for DDR? Prices are coming down. Debating between AMD Duron 700 (OC) and a 1Ghz T-bird. Is 266mhz FSB worth the extra mulah? Thanks in advance! Miss the Anandtech Buyers Guide. Anyone know of a recent guide?

I would personally recommend getting a board using the KT133A chipset rather than a DDR board for the simple reason that the former is a 2nd generation chipset therefore has less bugs and more stability.
