There's more to this story than just another notch on the MHz pole, as the review showcases some new benchmarks in an already diverse set of tests, and shows the new P4 leveraging an impressive performance from RDRAM-based platform. Incidentally, the slack demand for RDRAM has it almost as cheap as DDR SDRAM."

Nforce is seeming like a nice solid platform these days, I'm using an SiS 735 board here and it's NO trouble whatsoever... the AMD 761/762 (uni/smp) northbridges are stable.

If I hear ONE more person say "I'm not buying AMD 'cause VIA chipsets suck", I'm going on a killing spree.. damnit.
