RE:"McMoron - "Crucial does not make PC2100 Cas 2 DDR yet, only 2.5."
What do I care and why tell me?"

You have a point, why would anyone post to a rude idiot like you.

RE:"THG said they used Micron Memory - and not necessarily Crucial (Whom Micron Owns) - and they specifically stated that it was CL2:

Micron and crucial memory are the same.
Other companies offer Cas2 PC-2100.

Re: "http://www.tomshardware.com/cpu/01q4/011031/xpvsp4-04.html
Memory 256 MB DDR-SDRAM, CL2, PC2100, Micron

SO THG is going down the tubes...nothing new there. Just look at the stupid "run the chip without a heatsink video".

RE:"Maybe you can address the DIRTY LITTLE SECRET that NO ONE on the AMDroid thread ever addresses:
NEARLY ALL AMD Cheerleader sites benchmark their ATHwiper systems with CL2 memory - which is hard to get and more expensive to use - just to squeeze out the benchmark specs -then they fall back on the lower price of CL 2.5 or CL3 memory when comparing the cost of AthWipers with SDRAM/DDR memory to Pentium 4 with RAMBUS?"

The difference is just a few bucks. These sites compare the
the Athlon to the P4 with Rambus. otherwise there would be NO comparison. Why does Intel use Rambus to bench the P4 and then sell it into channels to be coupled with SDRAM and the i845 chipset and dupe the consumer into thinking he's getting something faster than a Tualatin Celeron?
P4 sells on Mhz alone. Other than that, its a failed chip that has to be crippled to sell...
But it will sell, so what are you ballyhooing about...moron?
