I have a question for someone knowledgable about what may be or not a
problem with memory.

I put together an ASUS barebones system with an Athlon 64 X2 6000+
processor and 2X MWAVE 1GB PC25300 667MHZ NON-ECC 240-PIN DDR2 DIMM
500 GB WD ATA hard drive
I installed Windows XP Pro for an operating system.

My old computer is another barebones that I bought about eight years
ago. It has an Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe motherboard and AMD Athlon 2800+
processor 1GB DDR memory running Windows XP Home

With the exception of booting up I could not see much difference in
the speed of the two so I added another 2X MWAVE 1GB PC25300 667MHZ
NON-ECC 240-PIN DDR2 DIMM with no difference in speed that is notable.

The faster processor seems to do many tasks at lightning speed,
however I think many of the programs/hardware are bottlenecks as they
can't keep up.

Maybe I would have been better off to upgrade the old computer.

Any suggestions??

ASUS M2A-VM
AMD ATHLON 64 X2 6000+
4GB DDR2 667
WD 500 GB SATA
WD 130 GB EIDE
