Where have I been?

LAST EDITED ON Feb-15-02 AT 06:30 AM (GMT)
I have obviously been way out in the wilderness here, but could someone explain the differences on cnr, amr, and acr. I know that they are communications bus for the mobo, or something like that. Last I had heard PCI and ISA connections were the standard for modems, and network cards. Could someone also give me a brief rundown on the difference between and athalon and duron chipset (if I was lookin at the same speed cpu)

I might say the same (noticed that I did not respond to your post).

They still are as far as I am concerned. I wrote-up a piece on riser cards some time ago, it is in these forums somewhere. Try the Site Search to the left. I would suggest visiting AMD’s web site at http://www.amd.com/us-en/. The main differences between the Athlon and Duron processors is that the Athlon has more on-die cache’ memory and is available at faster clock speeds. Larry
