hyper transport question!!

[sputnick]

i could do with a little advice please!!!


i have been looking at this particular barebones system:

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/AMD_Shuttle.html

now the case looks ace and has all the requirements for me, but the only question i have regarding this case is about the 1ghz hypertransport on the nforce4 ultra mobo.

on the nf4 ultra abit mobo i was looking at here: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatal...ocket_939.html

it says the abit mobo is 2ghz hyper transport???

now both motherboards, the shuttle and the abit nf4 ultra
are both nf4, but only the abit supports 2ghz hypertransport??

so finally to my main question.......how much of a sacrifice will it be to go for a 1 ghz ht, over 2ghz??

i will be doing some light overclocking(3700+ clocked to around fx55 speeds hopefully), so will the ht affect this?

helllp!!!!!

sorry to bump but i need to get some idea by the end of the evening!!!!

Late reply, but there's no difference. HTT runs at 1GHz on S939 but is multiplied by 2 (can't remember why offhand - upstream and downstream? *shrug*) resulting in the 2GHz figure. 2GHz sounds more impressive after all

thanks for that, my shuttle is gonna rock!!


if i can get my 7900gt 512mb golden sample in later this month !!
