Ok.. i've got an ecs k7s5a board, which has 2 sdr and 2 ddr slots.. I'm currently using sdram (2x256) however the prices for ddr just dropped considerably, so now ddr and sdram are the same price, so i'm gonna make the switch to ddr.

now since i run at 133 fsb (sometimes overclock a bit, highest i've gone is 147) i really only need to get pc2100. is there any point in me getting 2700 now? I'm also thinking down the road, but then again, by the time I get a new motherboard ddr400 might be widely used anyway.

here are the prices i've found:

512meg pc2100 DDR $90 (cdn)
512meg pc2700 DDR $115 (cdn)

i'm leaning towards getting the 2100 considering the 2700 is $25 more.. what you guys think?

I'd say the PC2100 would be good enough for you now. You're right, by the time you're ready to upgrade your whole system (if it's 1 year+), there will be ddr533 or something...

The jump from SDRAM to any DDR should be appreciable.
