As long as you follow the recommendations, you can have a good experience. If you buy memory from PriceWatch.com (as I once did, never again), you get what you pay for. Your reward is excellent performance and stability if you do it right. The P4's have similar issues in terms of memory sensitivity. They are less sensitive on PS issues. They are more sensitive on the cooling issues (though they have built in protection which automatically drops performance if they get too hot). -- Joseph Landman, Ph.D Scalable Informatics LLC, email: landman at scalableinformatics.com web : http://scalableinformatics.com phone: +1 734 612 4615
