I have an Athlon Thunderbird at 1Ghz with it's 200Mhz bus and i am using CAS 2
PC-133. Has anyone noted the increase in performance for chess programs going
from PC-133 to DDR? How Much would going from PC-133 to PC-1600 be?(1Ghz on a
DDR Bus) What about PC-133 to PC-2100? 1Ghz on a 266Mhz Bus)
PC2400 (300Mhz Bus) PC2700 (333Mhz Bus)?

Is it possible to estimate how many NPS this is worth? Normally people are most
concerned with the ClockSpeed while there really aren't many tests for Chess
Programs that say which CPU is better let alone how much difference the Bus
Speed makes.
