Cirruslvr - <But without i820 it will be underperforming.>

Have you seen benchmarks with PC-133 or i810 with Cumine?

But yes, I believe i820 would be optimum. How much of an impact to performance due to the lack of i820 is unknown at this point (at least to me and presumably you).

It is still unknown to me how long i820 is going to be out of action. For all I know it could be fixed in time for the Cumine launch, or not.

Gee, I thought the anti-Rambus coalition was claiming that Coppermine will underperform with the 820 chipset.

Or maybe you're thinking of some 820 chipset derivative with native PC133 support. As we all know, Intel's PC133 chipset (whatever it'll be called) won't come until 2000.
