Here we get a sneak peek at what lies ahead - the 875P offers
no more memory bandwidth than the 865PE in Dual DDR333 mode. Note that Intel's
Performance
Acceleration Technology (PAT) is only functional in DDR400 mode, thus
this isn't too surprising.
The 865PE even offers slightly lower latency than the 875P when
running in DDR333 mode.
I appreciate reviews such as this. But, as a "middle ground" technical background but heavy Excel, and database manipulation user my options break out different than specified here. I am a retail buyer. Box it and sell it to me. The 865's are boxed with "middle systems", the 875's with "higher systems". If I upgrade a "middle", with larger HD and monitor, I am within $30 of the higher system "out of the box". In no way is this a layman's forum, but it would be nice for the "layman", if you included a sentence about "if you are within $100, go ahead with this".
