Harry, If you go to THG Battle of the Titans... That review was done with single channel DDR chipset on P4 side. Even though this is how some 90% + of P4 system will be sold (single channel SDR and DDR), all of the benchmarks will be done with dual channel chipsets. AMD should consider in the future to have a showcase platform and volume platform. Joe

hmaly, Re: "According to our laboratory results, with a speed of 1933 MHz, AMD can reach the performance of a Pentium 4/3000 based on DDR SDRAM." However, a 2.6GHz Pentium 4 with RDRAM can outperform the Athlon in every test but the Linux compile. A 2.4GHz Pentium 4 can almost outperform it in more than half the tests. AMD is set to launch a M2200+ in the second quarter, aren't they? Intel will have a 2.4GHz Northwood that can outperform a M2300+ in more than half the tests, so I assume it will do even better against the M2200+. It appears that Northwood will have the performance crown for at least one more quarter. wbmw
