After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain. I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain. If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration.
Please update your bookmarks and be sure to visit the new and improved Ninjalane at Hardwareasylum.com

SiSoft Sandra
Sandra is a software collection of synthetic benchmarks
that will give us a basic idea as to what a system is capable of. It should be noted that SiSoft numbers change depending on what version you have installed, these were
recorded using Sandra Professional Version 2004.8.9.131
Cachemem
Cachemem is a synthetic benchmark used to test bandwidth and latency.
Synthetic Conclusion
Not much to say here except that higher memory bandwidth isn't always a bad thing provided you don't need new memory to make it happen. At default speeds it would seem that DDR1 and DDR2 are not that different.
