OK, I assume the reason I am getting no responses is that the Athlon 64 does rather poorly in unbuffered memory access: Athlon 64 unbuffered Sandra Mem test

Athlon 64 benchmark help

?? I'm a little puzzled about this comment -- do you have results for a 2.0 GHz Athlon 64 ?? This benchmark is not greatly affected by the size of the L2 cache (in fact, a really large cache can slow it down slightly). The raw ability of the CPU to get data in from main memory is very...

Athlon 64 benchmark help

Would you help me by running a benchmark on AMD64 systems with dual-channel DDR? I am trying to decide on getting an Athlon 64 or a P4 (875 or 865xx) dual-channel PC3200 system. Most of the machine's CPU cycles will be used to run just one program, which happens to be very memory-intensive...

Rambus 8 and 16 device????

<< Can someone explain to me the difference between 8 and 16 device rambus memory and which is better? thanks >> all other things equal, the fewer devices per MB, the better off you are. Fewer devices per MB means lower latency. Most existing i850 implementations have a limit of 32 devices...

Fax / DSL solutions ??

I have Sprint/EL DSL service, with a Linksys 4-port router and an extra hub. I keep a 54Kbps modem in one of the 5 machines connected to the router, so I can use services that require dial-in. However, I don't like to leave my computer on all day when I'm not around, and the dial-up modem is on...

ECS K7S5A with floppy drive

Apart from just checking that line one is consistent, also try switching which connector attaches to the back of the floppy. A typical floppy cable has three connectors-- one for the mobo, one for floppy a:, and one for floppy b:. Some motherboards won't see the floppy unless you use "the...

hahah I microwaved another CD-R(VIDEO CLIP and a PIC)

<< Will the CD-R cause any damage to the microwave? I'd like to make a couple, but parents would flip if I broke the microwave. >> Equally important question: how did the microwave smell afterward? Chances are, the organometallic binders on the CDR aren't intended for human consumption.
