Would I get a good increase in performance in FS2002 especially with AI traffic and enhanced AFCAD files if I upgraded to a motherboard with the i875P chipset and ran my DDR333 sticks in dual channel?

i woudl reccomend DCDDR400 and a P4 "C" core, the C represents and 800 FSB, and get the springdale, not E7205, E7205 is for workstations, springdale is for gamers. i belive 865P is the springdale, correct me if i am wrong, but i reccomend either keeping your CPU and getting DCDDR400 as long as you get 2 sticks of it you can run it dual channel. confused?

Keep your current CPU and invest in a DC MB. Contrary to some views the 875 is almost exactly the same performance wise as the newer Chipset. Check Tomshardware.com for the article. You won't notice a tremendous increase but it will be an increase just the same.Bobby
