*Poll* Performance Ram and New Amd64/Optys

[mwmorph]

I've always been a student of Zebo's Memory Matrix, but with the new San Diego, Venice, Manchester, Toledo and various Opty cores, is value ram still such a value?
I'm thinking that venice and San Diego results are still comparable but how about the DC chips?
Also, I've always thought that you can get just as good a oc with valueram as TCCD or Ballistix ram as long as you run a divider. True?
Is Premium ram still worthless for someone that's on budget and has the ability to upgrade to a better cpu for ocing or gpu for gaming?

Voted the same... 😛

EDIT: "Yes" to all your posted questions as well... Dual Core CPU's don't offer an advantage currently (some games already benefit however), so for now a single core is still more than fast enough (sometimes faster than DC's)... DC will probably really break through when AM2 is around... Games like ES: Oblivion and (most certainly) ET: Quake Wars will benefit from 'em...
