Now I gotta run this thread side by side with NDC's (http://www.xtremepccentral.com/vbforums/showthread.php?threadid=1476) to see how I did ;)

I'm gonna take some pics of my system this weekend and will paste in here, too!

Biff, got your benches yet?

Yep right on par with the 1800 Reference system :) And I think Socal benched her system as I do all of mine and thats with a normal working load going on...Email open stuff running in the systray ect ect

Stan, I sure am!

It's good to see my system is running on par with NDC's, as I used his as my yardstick in addition to the Sandra reference system/s.

I benched with email turned off, but normal systray; ZoneAlarmPro, ICQ, NAV2002 and network.

Now I'm thinking about getting another stick of Mushkin.. :busted:

Any ideas about that memory bandwidth? 68%? :confused:

Does the AMD do interleaving from a setting in bios? If so, two sticks could work very well.

hey BBA :)

I don't think so, but I'll have to consult the manual to be sure. There aren't many options in this board! But another stick couldn't hurt anyway, eh? :)
