By chance, I just read that at Anand's, I came here to check if anybody had picked it up. The part I liked most was this: If you had heard the explicative that left our mouths after we saw these results you’d be shocked. We expected the KT266A to be competitive but not this competitive. The KT266A sustains a greater than 10% lead in Business Winstone 2001. We’ve made it a point to mention exactly how bottlenecked Business Winstone 2001 is by disk performance and the fact that the KT266A can outperform its closest competitor by 10% on the same exact platform is beyond impressive. We reran this test over and over again before we believed the results. anandtech.com Unfortunately, I'm not really sure this is good for AMD in the short term. Yet another thing to wait for, though presumably it won't require new mobo designs, anyway. If this sucker will scale up to the 166/333 mhz bus for the upcoming 333mhz DDR memory (what's that, pc2700?), it oughta be a trip.
