<Still think Intel's Rambus platform is a joke, Ali?> No, I don't "think", I know it for sure. What I think is that you have some thinking problems. I was comparing i440BX PC-100 platform with the i840 RAMBUST platform, WITH THE SAME PROCESSOR, COPPERMINE. I was trying to make this comparison as clean as possible for you. You still did not get it: the 400% increase in bandwidth has bought you only 2.5% gain in application performance. What I am alluding to is that you guys have little clue as where your application run-time budget goes, at system level. The above 2.5% result is a good illustration. I can tell you more: Please do yourself a favor: get an ASUS P2B board, and run it at 133FSB/133SDRAM with Cumine. Then compare results with a i820/40 system. Then look at your face in a mirror. As far as processor-L2 interaction concern, I am impressed with CuLaterMine 32-byte-wide access - it is more than "Ford Mustang" approach!
