is this output produced by 3 or by 5 diffferent computers? Here it suggests 5, but your text "How come the humble p233
I've been trying it in every banger of a pc I have around.I have now tried it on these PCs, one pc per line
P1-120Mhz (SLOW bus33/40 Mhz) 116MB/S Intel 430 chipset
P1-233Mhz (66 Mhz bus, edo ram) 142 MB/S Intel 430 chipset
K6/2-350Mhz 100 Mhz bus(pc100 ram) 127 MB/S SiS chipset
k6/3-500Mhz 100 Mhz bus (pc100 ram) 130 MB/s Via Chipset
P3 Coppermine -730Mhz 100 Mhz bus? 242 MB/S Intel 810 chipset
AthlonXP-2.6Ghz 333 Mhz bus (ddr RAM) 730 MB/S Via Chipset
I'm just amazed that there was such a superiority in the Intel chipsets. I had come to the conclusion that they were probably superior, I just never knew why. People don't seem to think the speeds are a factor of the cpu in use. It exposes my "Anything but Intel" policy as technically unsound, but I still am unlikely to buy from them.
i never forgave them for some of their nastier abuses of monopoly while they had it.
