<Does it matter? Both numbers showed PC133 more than enough to keep up and in fact beat DDR in most benchmarks. The fact still remains that the DDR hype has proven just that. Hype. We have yet to see any benchmarks that match the vaporware ghost of Micron's numbers that FUDster Bert McComas posted back in 1999. It seems that it was all FUD, BS and hype. DDR has not proven a runway performer and we now find out that it is 50% more expensive (not to mention the stick prices and that may or may not work or be compatible with other mobos or chipsets). I told you DDR was a PR disaster waiting to happen. Looks like it's already starting to happen.>

Did you ever consider a treatment for hysteria?
Or your special "PR hysteria syndrome" is incurable?

Sylvester,

Does it matter? Both numbers showed PC133 more than enough to keep up and in fact beat DDR in most benchmarks.

Anand's benchmarks showed DDR beating PC133 on every single test.

If you insist on comparing scores from different processors, you will continue to come to the same obviously incorrect conclusion.
