I have just ordered a Dell Dimension 9200 computer.
I was given an option of 2048mb dual channel DDR2 at 533MHz
or the same again but running at 677Mhz, the latter costing £80 more.
Can any techies out there explain the benefits of the higher frequency?

Thankyou for the replies and yes it is a 2 Duo chip thingy
My present computer is five years old and comes to a standstill when multi-tasking. Hopefully having two brains in this new computer will speed things up.
