HURRY! IS THIS A GOOD DEAL?

Ok take in consideration it's from a Canadian retailer (prices are about 25% higher) :

Could I put 2 of those in raid 0 and would it be performant?

Would 4 gigs of those PC2 5300 outperform 2 gigs of PC2 6400???


I've been waiting for something like this to order my new computer. If you think those deals are good I think I may be going for it tonight!!!

This is the wrong forum for a question of that type. Visit the general hardware forum in the future.

None of those prices are very shockingly low enough to warrant an impulse buy.

Generally, no, just having 4gb especially at a slower operating speed will not outperform 2gb of pc6400.

I don't like the design of most 250GB HD's.. they tend to have low platter density and a head that does double duty between platters. 320GB models tend to have a better design and are still reasonble in price.

and yes this is the wrong fourm.. its also nice if you don't use all caps in your posts (it makes it seem like your SHOUTING!!! )

Ok thanks guys! I'm sorry I'm not really used to write on forums. I'll make another thread in the General Hardware section.
