    Re: P-III 933Mhz too slow?

The 1Ghz was a 440BX chipset. It's almost as fast as my P4 2Ghz running app. There is always hourglass when I switch apps like from Winamp to GPS or from GPS to OBD-II info on my car PC.
    The C3 is slower than a Celeron3 of similar speeds, which is inturn slower than a Pentium3 (which is inturn, as fast as a duron, which is inturn slower than an athlon ). And the 440BX was the most versatile (best) chipset EVAR (the i810,i815, and i820 were all abominations).

    The 440BX had the best memory speed, except for new DDR, and RDRAM.

    When the chipsets came out after it, the KT133, and the i810/i820, they couldnt compete with the 440bx for memory bandwidth. With DDR though modern memory speeds have passed it.

    You have to look at the whole PIII architecture.

    It was once said that the PIII couldn't really take advantage of RDRAM or DDR...

    A3-M293 AMD
    A4-M280 Intel

    Search newegg.com for "sapphire a3" for the older version with USB v1, AC97 audio and vga/composite out for $72.

    I'm going to see if the new distributor can get those to my old boss.

    The board im referring to is a mini Flex-ATX. It's smaller than the Flex-ATX that Asus offers. The Sapphiretech mobo are MicroATX which is larger than the standard FleX-ATX. There are tons of MicroATX that has verything built in. I am referring to mini Flex ATX boards. Thats why I was comparing the shuttle boards.

    I knew what you meant.

    I was just sharing the info of a mobo that has everything including probably the best integrated graphics card (Great for car DVD and DiVX) with composite and s-video than uses an AMD CPU.
