how did you find out i was Powered By an Intel TrueAI IV Central AI Processing Unit? [chuckles]

Thnx for closing the other thread thunder.. that insufferable jackass zylone likes ruining things as you can see

[Fineus]

Ah yes, you like Intel - I imagined as much. Do you take pride in liking what virtually everyone else has proven to be overpriced whilst not as good? Ah well.

As for owning the thread, it was because of everyone (including yourself) that I decided to own the thread. Zylon is not the only one to blame there, please don't do so again.

I have a buddy who just got a 1.2GHz Tbird, and he hates the Via chipset in his asus mobo, it causes problems. I'm planning on waiting to upgrade since computers now are all bottlenecked. The new nVidia nForce chipset is supposed to have some new tech that AMD made that will eliminate the bottleneck.

The ASUS A7M266 does NOT use the VIA chipset.  It uses the AMD designed 761 chipset.  

Oh, and yes, all the other DDR chipsets suxor  for the Athalon   Just for completeness... the difference is in the memory latency, same issue that was seen between Intel's venerable BX chipset and the chipsets from everyone else.
