    The difference is that the review has been re-done, and re-tested from scratch - there will be a DDR2 roundup following too. Everything that has been done here has been verified and re-tested again after the 'screwup' with the initial test results that we released a while back. I've spent a long time working through this with Rob to ensure that we bring you the right information. For example, Corsair's XMS4400C25 defaulted to 2.5-4-4-8 at 400MHz, hence why we have tested at those settings at 400MHz, despite the fact that it will deliver similar, if not the same, performance as the Corsair XL Pro as it uses the same TCCD memory modules.

    The link has also been fixed, thanks.

    7,200RPM western digital, about 100GB IIRC - does it matter? ;)

    it was a 120GB 7200RPM 8MB Cache WD1200 if you used the one that I sent with the motherboard.

    Um ..... I know you probably don't have the time to test, but how do the modules perform on an A64 system compared to the intel rig you uses? It would be interesting to know if the result was the same or not.

    Was going to ask the same. The A64's seem to love the TCCD modules, should hit 260+ without a problem with decent timings and lower volts.
    Out of interest, does the test show the maximum performance (bandwidth) or the highest fsb/overclock from the modules?
