Jozef_Halada, That 10% increase is using a 100% faster FSB at 266Mhz and the comparison is even with a slower PC133 platform than the i815. The 820 platform uses a 100% slower FSB dude. Wake up! DDR sucks. It's pure junk. All this using a 100% faster FSB and 100% faster memory for a 10% improvement when compared to the slowest PC133 platform. And did I also tell you how much more expensive that junk is? DDR clearly has not lived up to the hype. DDR is junk and dead dead dead. PC133 SDRAM will eat it alive on price alone. DDR mobos are more than twice the price of PC133. Sticks is the same. Micron is asking $200 for 128MB even slower 200MHz DDR. And they don't even list 266MHz DDR. DDR is pure junk. It was all hype. Even AMD says so with those pathetic benchmarks that even use the faster 266MHz memory and the faster 266MHz FSB. DDR is pure junk.
