Was looking into building a new system to one of my friend.
And I was into the CPU/MOBO/MEM dilem again, so I wanted to build a 2.4ghz 533bus, with PC1066 thinking it was the best...

But then I saw on a pricelist "PC4200 32bits"
wow whats that? and how come is it cheaper?? Is that any good?

How come I never heard about that :D

It overclocks worse (On the current implmentation, the P4T-533) but is stable as a rock. The *only* advantage it has over PC1066 is that you only have to plug in on module at a time.

But AFAIK it's not compatible with motherboards that take the "traditional" RDRAM. So please be cautious and make sure that you match the mobo to the RAM properly.
