Socket AM2 by itself does not demand that you throw away your motherboard and RAM for an upgrade.
It's what comes next that will spur new sales for AM2-based systems. 4x4 being one of those, quad-core being another.
If you've already got a Socket 939 box then you're not going to throw away that investment. If you're buying a new system then you'd be daft to not go AM2. So, yes, AM2 isn't going to drive tons of people to run out and replace the whole system, but then how often have people gone out and replaced the entire motherboard, CPU, RAM set for any upgrade?
(IMHO if you're replacing the triumvirate then you go and look at buying a new box since you're going to be stuck with an essentially whole PC's worth of parts after the upgrade.) - Posted by: Robert Crocker Posted on: 09/27/06 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
