Thanks alot! That really clears up things. I didn't realize it was the smaller the better for those numbers, and I thought the higher CAS would have been better. Good to know that I can easily avoid ECC too.
Thanks!

oldwrench , I have now read two of Maximum PC's recent magazines, and I found it to be quite a good read. sysKin , thanks for the comparison.
