Some more newbie computer questions!

[kazzer]

Could someone please explain the following to me:

- Processor Front Side Bus (FSB). Should I go for 800MHz?

- Dual channel RAM. What does this mean, and should I go for this type of RAM?

- Also just a quick query about P4's. I notice that some of them have particular names like 'Prescott'. Whats the significance of this? Are there any ones that are more favorable than others, and are there any I should avoid?


I mainly want my new system for the latest games and also DV/DVD.

Cheers!
