Which Is better CPU or Memory

[SgtRock]

On my P4B533 I can run my CPU/Memory at either

3600/160 or 3335/198

Was wondering what you folks thorught would be better?

The memory marks from Sandra are the following:

160=2344
198=2800

Both at 2-3-3-6

Well... that would depend on whether your task is CPU intensive or Memory
Bandwidth intensive.

It would also help if you told us the speed of your FSB and whether it was
in synch with the Memory.

Probably doesn't matter in the real world. The only true benchmark is
running your application in your environment. So if you run ABCD.exe most of
the time do some test cases with it.
