Tough Battle For Customers: With Features And Color

Deciding what to buy is not always easy for the go-getting user: a new board is on the cards and the platform's already been selected - a Pentium 4 with DDR memory. But these details are far too sketchy to ensure a failsafe choice. A handful of freaks have already decided for the exotic platform (Intel 850E) with Rambus memory in the last few weeks - and it wasn't such a bad choice. After all, the memory doesn't cost much more than the mass-produced DDR-SRAM, and the extra outlay for an 850 board is not going to break the bank. Alternatively, the fully developed Intel 845 chipset comes in a number of versions that work together with DDR266 and, in a recent development, even with fast DDR333 memory. And what's more, that's official. That's because, unofficially, the majority of boards in our last test (DDR333 for P4: 16 Boards with Intel 845G - Part II ) were already running on DDR333 including CL2 mode. There's no question that, particularly in conjunction with the new chipsets, the P4 platform has reached a stage of development of which its chipset rivals can only dream. Intel has returned to the big mass market, so to speak - for the first time since its legendary 440BX at the close of the 90s. In this benchmark test we'll be putting boards with 845GE and 845PE chipsets under the microscope.
