Asus P5GD2 With Intel 915P, Continued

Our intention in this review is primarily to compare VIA’s new combo solution with Intel’s PCI Express DDR2 platform. As a matter of course, we ran both systems at best memory timings possible. In case of the P5GD2, we operated the Corsair DIMMs at CL3-2-2-4 and 266 MHz (DDR2-533), which is the fastest setting that both BIOS versions and memory chips support today.
