    Question General AMD question

    Sorry for the newb-ish question, but where is a good place to learn (in the quickest way possible) about the different AMD socket types, the processor groups that correspond with them, and the memory bandwidths that each group has?

    I've built, cooled, and overclocked lots of intel systems and know a lot about them, but I don't know much about AMD motherboards, the chips that fit them, and the right memory type (PC2700 for instance) to buy. It seems like there are a whole lot more current classes of AMD chips and motherboards still in production than intels. I'd to know more so I can buy components and overclock them with confidence. thanks.

    "There is something to be learned from a rainstorm. When meeting with a sudden shower, you try not to get wet and run quickly along the road. But doing such things as passing under the eaves of houses, you still get wet. When you are resolved from the beginning, you will not be perplexed, though you still get the same soaking. This understanding extends to everything."
