    S2460 w/ PC2700 non-ECC RAM

    A 512MB stick of PNY ... no problems

    Just a note to say it didn't even require BIOS changes or clearing as adding ECC RAM has required in the past.

    I'll repost if it becomes unstable.

    I am getting speeds equal to my non-dual XP1800 Abit board...ECC of course does slow you down (and SuSE is always a bit slower than other Linux's) so by going to non-ECC RAM the S2460 is faster than it's ever been.

    I don't seem to be losing any strucs due to not being able to use 2-Bank access.

    Amazing results I dont know if it's the PC2700 RAM or the Mandrake 9.1, but I was getting 188K and 186K on the Mandrake 9.1 dual this afternoon!!! I had a glitch and didn't get a bench shot before the cutover but I'll try to later. And the cable connection went out for 18 hours...always something..

    Those are very high numbers for an XP1800
