:confused:
I think I have a problem somewhere, but I find it hard to locate it.
Please read on:

I have done tests on 2 systems:

System 1:
MB Abit SL6 i815
CPU Celeron 600@750 MHz (83 FSB)

System 2:
MH Chainech ViaApollo Pro 133A
CPU PEntium III 667 MHz (133 FSB)

Memory module 1:
128 MB RAM PC133 VM

Memory module 2:
128 MB RAM PC100 Soltek

SiSoft Sandra 2001 Memory Benchmark:

System 1 + Memory 1: (PC133@83)
Int 109 MB/s
Float 110 MB/s

System 2 + Memory 2: (PC100@83)
Int 110 MB/s
Float 111 MB/s

These results are with CAS 3 - if I set CAS 2, there is an increase of ~20%.

System 2 + Memory 1 (PC133@133)
Int 257 MB/s
Float 291 MB/s

System 2 + Memory 2 (PC100@133 - !?)
Int 231 MB/s
Float 252 MB/s

The CPU & MMX benchmarks are around 10% higher on Syst 1.
I find this very odd.
Is this a 'normal' difference between PIII and Cely?
Does the Abit MB has any problems? I bought it brand new...
Are there any other Benchmarks softwares to try?
