Hi,

could you describe, what performance issues you had with 915?

I got a 915, which I think is ... perhaps a bit slow. One would expect a 2.8 PIV with 1GB RAM to be snapier(I am talking about the UI) than what we are experiencing. Especially eclipse-GTK is very slow.

Best Regards
sasoon

Two bits of advice:

1) -- get and apply the BIOS update from Intel.  That solved our performance
problems with 915-based systems for both RHEL 3.4 and 4.0 systems.

2) -- don't send HTML email to mailing lists.

Happy Hunting.
