[QUOTE="haginile, post: 284133, member: 23406"] Thanks for the input. Anyway, a few ideas: - I don't quite understand why you say that the FSB bottlenecks the system. The RAM is 667MHz; the motherboard fully supports this bandwidth as well. Even there will be a motherboard that provides better bandwith, the reality is that the mobile version of the chips supports UP TO 667Mhz and won't go any further. - I agree that 64bit is serves its purpose on Mac Pro and XServe, at this point... - Tiger is not a fully 64-bit operating system. But its unix-layer is fully 64-bit. As Apple claims, "Mac OS X Tiger delivers the power of 64-bit computing to your Mac. Build and run a new generation of 64-bit applications that address massive amounts of memory, without compromising the performance of your existing 32-bit applications." [/QUOTE]
