Hi,

I want to upgrade my PC from Pentium 3 at 800GHZ to a Pentium 4 at 3.0 GHz.

Is this solution right?

ASUS p4c800 deluxe (new intel chipset)
Intel Pentium 4 at 3 GHz (800 FSB)

What kind of memory should i need if i want 1GB of RAM?

Thanks

Get unbuffered,DDR400 memory. This new motherboard uses Dual DDR channel technology. So if you want to take advantage of this , you will need to install 2 modules at a time. Also, the CPU will have Hyper-threading capabilities. To take full advantage of this ability, you will need to use WinXP as your OS. WinXP (with Hyper-threading enabled in OS and in the BIOS) will see your processor and 2 cpu's. Very slick!
