    G400 vanilla or MAX?

    The real problem around here is, I was poory saving money for a G400 MAX but at last, I failed to reach the amount. Now, the only choice is the G400. Is the vanilla board overlockable? I hear they both ship with -5.5 memory - but the MAX with a supplied fan.

    Other then the 360MHz RAMDAC compared to 300MHz, where it's useless for standard 17-19"ers to show a very significant difference(There isn't at all actually), is the MAX worth the extra to wait another month or a bit less?

    Thanks!!

    The vanilla G400s generally come with 6.5ns cache, the Max 5.5ns.

    I recommend the standard G400. You won't be disappointed with it.

      Very helpful. I mean it.

      OK this adds up to the other question.
      G400 owners, what ns rating does your frame-buffer mem. have?

      Thanks!!
