dramreview is of course a favorite "objective" source locally. Right up there with legal opinions from anonymous Yahoo posts.

<I suggest you read the following before you speak out of place in the future.> You and your "dramreview" both have no clue about system performance. I was just trying to help in clearing your confusion about variety of benchmark results, but apparently your militant ignorance has no limit and no sufficient background to comprehend the matters. <..instead of being caught on lies and wasting your efforts here> So far it was Rambus who was caught in lies about a) lower latency, b) lower power consumption, c) better performance, d) lower cost of board tracing (including RIMM manufacturing). Enough for you, or not? As far as wasting my efforts here, I totally agree with you. <..major issues with DDR stick incompatibilities, do not look good at all for DDR. Not good at all.> Judging from this, RIMMs must be totally comatible, right? You sound very, very concern here. Why is that?

Sylvester, Have you figured out yet why it is important to limit degrees of freedom during benchmarking? #1 - On clock for clock, Pentium III is faster than Athlon (what ever happened to all the: "Athlon is faster than P3 and AMD is better than Intel crap". Was it all like just a bunch of BS? Cause I mean you guys, you need to get your lies straight in the future cause it doesn't look good. ;-) Not surprisingly, benchmarks optimized for SSE perform better on PIII than Athlon. However, most of the Anand site benchmarks showed Athlon/DDR ahead of PIII. The fact that you don't understand what another is saying, does not make the other person a liar. Rather, the problem seems to lie in your lack of comprehension. Scumbria
