Jeff - Re: Call it an very educated guess. BX parts (I suppose) have been in manufacture over two months. These parts are going somewhere!"

Guess where one of the 440BX chips went?

That's right - Tom Uberclockermeister has one for testing purposes!

No results as of 2/10/98 - but he's uberclocking the heck out of it!

Right now I am running benchmarks on a BX chipset board. Wow, a BX
chipset board !!! Well, it runs wonderfully at 300/100, 350/100 and
400/100,
the only problem was getting some SDRAM that talks to it at
this speed. Unfortunately I can run the tests with only 32 MB, because I
can only use one DIMM slot and I couldn't find any SDRAM 64 MB
DIMM that would run reliably at 100 MHz. Anyway, I'll tell you latest by
tomorrow how much difference 100 mHz bus speed really make. Let me
know if there's any particular benchmark you would like me to run.

I've also got a cool Socket 7 CPU here that's talking 100 MHz, but the
new board that's here for running this CPU doesn't like me or at least it
doesn't like any of my SDRAM types (and believe me, I've got quite a
few). I don't want to tell any names for obvious reasons. As soon as I've
got a decent Socket 7 AGP board that does 100 MHz bus speed
reliably (and this means e.g. not running Winstone only half, in case that
sounds familiar to you), I will post the results ASAP."
