Jim, <A 400 MHZ FSB should make a huge difference in performance.>

Intel already revealed back in February that the FSB of Willamette is 400 MHz. Given that the bus is 64 bits wide, that would lead to a maximum bandwidth of 3.2 GB/sec. The dual RDRAM channels of the Tehama chipset also provide 3.2 GB/sec of bandwidth, so Willamette will make better use of RDRAM than a Pentium III on an 820/840 chipset.
