    In you review, I would be interested in performance scaling with memory speed. In the past I've built machines for friends using my second hand parts, and have found that buying the fastet memory that the IGP motherboard can support can make the difference between "pathetic" and "acceptable".

    Where in the enthusiast space, upgrading to faster memory usually isn't worth the investment over upgrading other parts, my impression is in the IGP space that the performance in noticeable. I would be very interested to see if that pans out in your benchmarking.

    Lets face it, who doesn't have PC2-4200 floating around? Is it worth using even in a non-gaming or minimal gaming machine?

    Peace.
