Scumbria: RE Intel 1.13 GHz Benchmarks. Intel's latest 1.13 GHz benchmark data( found by searching for "ddr" LOL) intel.com intel.com The following results were found. Test Content creation Winstone 2000 820 chipset @933 MHz 50.4 @ 1.13 MHz 55.8 815e chipset @933 MHz 51.6 The only reason I can explain lack of speed of 820 platform vs 815e is that an IBM ATA-100 hard drive was used on both sets of Intel's tests. The 820 chipset comes with 82801 ICH (supports only ATA-66) while 815e chipset has 82801BA ICH (supports ATA-100) Can you honestly state that there is a not a difference in disk transfer with ATA-66 vs ATA-100 interfaces with an ATA-100 hard drive. My feeling is that there is a measureable speed difference using ATA-100 vs ATA-66. We will have to wait for 820e benchmark tests to adquiately compare RDRAM to SDRAM. john
