Hi Gene Parrott; Re that Micron 222 PC133 SDRAM's performance...

Remember how the Intel people mixed bandwidth with latency and made slides that showed a high bandwidth system getting more effective latency? TweakMax did the reverse. They compared 222 and 333 memory and showed that the lower latency improves the measured bandwidth. A lot:

tweakmax.com

Basically, I think that this shows that the bandwidth measurement software measures latency as well as bandwidth. You would think that they could null the latency out, and give back a more pure bandwidth number...

In any case, that 222 DRAM is quite a bit faster than the 333.
