Re: Yes, that was VERY INTERESTING!! I myself was thinking of giving up on RMBS on my next computer, now I will have to rethink all of that. JDN JDN, If you clicked on his links, you would see that the site recieved an anonymous email which is the source of the benchmarks. Hardly a credible source. As much as I would LOVE to find those benchmarks believable, they just seem way too off base to be taken seriously. Did you notice that a Cereron at 600 Mhz beats the 1 Ghz P4 on 2 out of 3 of those benchmarks? You can't have it both ways. If you take the Rambus bandwidth numbers seriously, it's clear the P4 is in serious trouble and is one SLOW processor clock-for-clock compared to the Athlon. I tend to just dismiss the benchmarks as jibberish. I can't believe a 600 Mhz Celeron beating a P4. That's just too out in left field. chic
