Duke,

Assuming a OC 1.15(?) PIII with 266, how would that compare to a 1.2 AMD running on what 200 Dram?

One problem with Piii is that the FSB of the processor is not DDR, so theoretically, the memory is able to sent 1.6 or 2.1 GB per second of data but the Piii is able to accept only 1 GBs. This is part of the problem with Piii and Rambus. 820 and 840 chipsets with PC-800 RDRAM are able to transfer 1.6 or 3.2 GB of data per second, but Piii is able to receive only 1 GB of it per second.

I think DDR will provide less of the boost (if any) to Piii. DDR will be useful for P4.
