Mike,

According to Tec Channel, Intel and Dell have now confirmed there is an issue with the i850 Tehama chipset affecting graphics performance.

Tehama is used in Intel's Garibaldi TTM (Time To Market) Pentium 4 mobo which shipped to OEMs in June. Dell is concerned that an instability within the chipset can cause the system to crash under heavy graphics load.

This seems contradictory. Is the problem a performance issue, or is it a functional bug?
