SBH, re: <If I buy a few i820 with 512MB of sdram...> Don't think you can buy these anymore. Take HP for example, (look's like HP was hit hard by the 820 issue). I see they've stopped production of Kayak work stations with 820 MTH mobo's. It also look's like a problem that will be around awhile. For those that bought the DIMM version there is the question of future memory upgrades. If HP replaces the mobo with the RIMM version, what is the impact of upgrading? (For example, if I want to add 128 MB RDRAM, I'm saddled with the price of RIMM's). For those who bought on price this could be a source of irritation. There's also a credibility issue surfacing. From the Register. On 21 April, Intel posted the following reply on its motherboard support forum to a user query on The Register's story on the Cape Cod mobo recall: "Thank you for posting in our forum. "No, it has been erroneously reported that Intel is recalling the CC820 board. While Intel does not comment on specific articles or publications, we can confirm that the CC820 desktop board has not been recalled nor are there any plans to recall the product for this issue. Due to the specific characteristics of the synthetic memory stress test, we believe the exposure to this issue is small for customers running real-world applications. If a board is found to exhibit this issue, it should be handled through the standard warranty repair process. Regards John S. MCSE, A+ Intel Technical Support" theregister.co.uk bummer JMHO's
