These are 2 subjects I haven't seen mentioned much so here goes...
Is there any substantial benefit to increasing a motherboard's (static
RAM) cache from the oft-sold 256K to something greater (like 512K or 1MB
where applicable)? Likewise faster SIMMs (< 70ns) and correspondingly at
what point is it appropriate to lower the wait states in the BIOS?
because inquiring minds want to know...
regards,
larry
