FCPGA vs Slot 1, what is better?

January 29th, 2001, 03:41 PM

Gang, I have been trying to do some research on what processor type is better:
FCPGA or SLOT 1.

System's that I have put together have only been slot 1 not FCPGA. Since the Intel price cut is supposed to happen, I am wondering what type I should get for a high end upgrade. I have a 600e now but if the prices are going to make getting a 800+ for a steal then I would like to jump on it. A lot of the vendors I see are selling the FCPGA and not the slot 1. Any info on this would be greatly appreciated. Intel's site just goes into real technical documents. I am just looking for a simple explanation. Thanks all!!
