I am planning to upgrade my computer and to buy a RAM-card accordingly. I would like to know the difference between "512 MB DDR2 533 MHz" and "512 MB DDR(AM) 400 Mhz"?

Your help will be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

P.S. I hope I am talking about "memory cards" for computers!

Computer Geniuses!

Where are you?

The first one you mention is going to be faster. But now a lot of DDR is 800mhz. If you didn't know, mHz is the speed of the processor, how fast it can deal with information. 533mHz is quick. Is this any use? I can find out more if you like.

Sorry I should have mentioned that DDR2 is newer technology than DDR(AM) which is actually DDRAM.

DDR etc

Sorry me again!! Have a look at this link and I think it will aswer your questions.

Thank you so much, libralady, for your time and kind help. I appreciated it much. You are so kind.

Thank you!

Damn I'm a genius when it comes to computers (accordingly) ...this was one question I could have actually answered if I was here!

Could you please give me some info about "AMD" processors? Little so I know about intel pentium ones, I don't know an iota of AMD processors. If you match and compare, in terms of performance and quality, few AMD processors with the most similar ones of intel processors I would be grateful. For example, what is or may be the closest and/or similar AMD match of the following?

Intel pentium 4 533, 3.0GHz, 800 MHz, 1 MB, 64/32 bit

What are, for instance, those AMD Athlon-64 / Athlon-64 FX / Athlon X2 -things?

Many thanks in advance again.
