"Expect a 3 percent to 5 percent boost with PC1066"
5% faster for only 4 times [pricewatch at 7:55PM - 93 vs 379] the cost.
Gimme gimme gimme! And I better get the full 5% speedup.
And gime me that 20% faster GeForce 4600 at twice the cost of the 4200 too.
Seriously, who falls for this scam?
P.S. finished the PS2 port, it benchmarks at fp:1 int:40. a celeron 525
benches at fp:460 int:400... If it's not a polygon fill the thing is
useless. There will be no beowolf cluster of these. It is 3x faster then
the iPaq tho at 1/13 :)
