hey Guys!

Anandtech just posted their "Weekly Memory & Motherboard Price Guide: February 2001 1st Edition" article on the main page. With DDR prices at a pretty reasonable price, is it worth buying it now?

I just bought an AMD Tbird 750 and a Abit KT7A-Raid motherboard. I'm planning to overclock it to 1ghz. I have a Corsair pc133 128meg chip right now. Should I buy some DDR ram instead? or use my current pc133 chip right now? I definately want to buy more ram.

Here are my choices:

1) More PC133 ram and combine it with my Corsair PC133 Ram..

or

2) Some DDR Ram..I'll probably get 2, 256 meg sticks if its cheap enough..

or

3) Should i Just get some PC150 ram


Let me know your opinions..thanks guys!

If you are running 98 or ME, then get an extra 128mb of PC133 memory, if you are running W2K why not get an extra 256mb of PC133.

If you want to tweak your memory a bit then the PC150 could be an option, I haven't heard huge amounts of positive stuff about DDR.
