Petz, Tom Pabst is hardly trustworthy anymore. Not only does the guy has an obvious anti-Intel bias, he seems to be pursuing an active vendetta against Intel as well. He fell off his rocker months ago. Meanwhile, you might want to check out the results on AnandTech, a site which is generally considered the best when it comes to objectivity: anandtech.com Business Winstone 99 (NT): 820 demonstrates 7.6% advantage over 440BX High-end Winstone 99 (NT): 820 demonstrates 11.6% advantage over 440BX SYSMark 98 (NT): 820 demonstrates 3.3% advantage over 440BX 3D Studio MAX: 820 cuts rendering times by 21.5% compared to 440BX I don't know why Anand didn't do any tests under Windows 98. I'd imagine the advantage of RDRAM is less under Win98 than it is under NT. Nevertheless, Anand's results with RDRAM look very different from Herr Uberclockermeister. Tenchusatsu P.S. - Anand also has direct comparisons between VIA's chipset using PC133 VC-SDRAM and Intel's chipset using RDRAM. Check out anandtech.com . The results are closer than I expected, but I still wouldn't expect PC133 to keep pace with RDRAM as processor speeds increase.
