Zitat
First off, the Pentium-M chip is a fairly good performer all around. The chip actually puts up numbers on par with Pentium 4 Extreme Edition and Athlon64 FX-55 in gaming, which is no easy feat. In the majority of benchmarks, the Pentium-M at 2.0 GHz can perform roughly on par with a 3.2 GHz P4 or an Athlon64 3200+ processor. Not great, but not terrible either. Some areas, like video encoding, really show the limitations of the Pentium-M architecture and the processor simply doesn’t perform that well considering its $450 price tag. While every processor has areas which it excels in, the Pentium-M processor seems to be a bit more extreme in its varying performance levels between applications. Some applications will just run insanely fast on the Pentium-M, while others will struggle to keep up. Overall though, performance is still certainly acceptable for the vast majority of applications.

We’re very happy with AOpen’s first Pentium-M platform, and this company should be given kudos for taking the risk of producing such a board for a platform which so many people know nothing about. The board has just about all the features we could want or expect in an 855-series platform, and offers quite a bit of flexibility for those who want to tweak their platforms to their fullest. It’s certainly possible to build a very high performance system with a Pentium-M processor and AOpen’s new i855GMEm-LFS board. This board is expected to start shipping in its finalized state this week and will likely sell for around $275.

Intel’s Dothan core, unfortunately, suffers the most due to its aging 855 chipset backbone. In order for the Pentium-M processor to make any real inroads in the enthusiast crowd, many will want a new chipset with PCI Express, native SATA RAID, and perhaps a dual channel memory interface which supports more than 2GB of memory. Perhaps we’ll see such a chipset in the near future, but we’re not holding our breath for now.

Ich weiß schon warum der Dothan meine nächste CPU wird

ich bin am grübel, denn 400euro sind viel geld für so eine cpu ...

nimmst halt nicht den 2gig sondern den 1.8gig, denst unter 300€ kriegst! das flaggschiff is immer teuer!
