Hi and welcome! [;)] About your questions... (1) DDR2 offers higher frequencies (speed) than DDR1....also...it operates at lower voltages (1.8V vs. 2.5V (DDR1))....and many other new features...[:)] Some of them you can find HERE.... I know that AMD supports only DDR1 (at least it did - maybe some latest boards also support DDR2...I am not sure about it)...so I dont think this should be a problem...AMD Cpu's are still faster in gaming and some other tasks when compared to Intel ones, although they use DDR1! So I wouldnt worry much if i were you...[;)] (2) Socket 939 is latest and offers great upgradation for future as well.... S754 = (Single Channel Memory Controller, 64bit, HTT 1600Mhz Full Duplex, SOI, 130nm) S939 = (Dual Channel Memory Controller, 128bit, HTT 2000Mhz Full Duplex, SOI, 90nm, 130nm) Especially Memory Bandwidth would be great (almost doubled) if u go with S939. S754 however is ok for gaming but it has no future.I highly suggest you to get S939 as you can upgrade to upcoming processors. I copied the above statements from THIS forum (read more about differences if you like)...[;)] (3) K7 = 32bit K8=64bit...[:)] Well there is more....so check it out for yourself HERE... Well thats it for now...I hope i provide you at least basic information about your questions....and I hope some other will be able to give you even more details...Good luck and enjoy....[;)] SF.
