I missed the entry and waited too long. By the time I got on the net, it was trading south of 6.50. That's why I didn't want to miss it when it was above 5.55, I put in my bid at 5.55 and got it filled.

Btw, like the last time when I saw the P4X266 mobos by shuttle, this time I saw an MSI Sis645 DDR333 mobo in a store. There was a long lineup, and I was in a hurry, so I did not pick one up.

I'm hoping I'll have time to stop by next week and pick up a P4-2.2 and that mobo with 3x512MB PC2700 sticks to play with. I hear from the web that only mu/hynix/?? 6ns or less ddr chips are compliant right now. (They should be marked -6 or lower).

Like the last time with ddr-266 stability nonsense, I expect the usual drivel about violation of laws of physics will be tossed in by the usual suspects, and when you shine the spotlight on them they will probably go poof again. But until I actually bring a couple up, it's hard to be sure.

So..... Does this P4 ddr-333 thing really work?

I also hear that some people are selling ddr-333 K7 (Athlon-XP) mobos, but for the life of me, I can't figure out why anyone would bother to a chipset that runs memory faster than the fsb, perhaps just shaving .5 clk of cas latency? Geez how can it work? If you have integrated graphics, perhaps, or if they fixed an old performance bug with the 266 chipsets, sure, otherwise, why bother?
