Hi jim kelley; Re: "As I remember, after the 820 recall, Intel sent prototype i820s to the MOBO manufacturers that ran about 1.5 X the speed of the final production i820s. There was a lot of talk about about de-rating at the time."

It was more like 1.15x, not 1.5x, and the rumor was that Intel had to give up the performance to get the systems to work reliably. Intersymbol interference between different memory chips was the problem, if I remember correctly.
