"The 2-2-2 stands for the CAS latency timings of the memory basically you can get two sorts CAS 3 and CAS 2, a lot of people will go for generic memory which for most people will be good enough but for power users and overclockers we want memory that will do CAS 2 at least at 133mhz and even beyond, now I wont bore you buy going into the finer points of memory timings and how and why it affects performance I will just show you 2 screenshots from Sissoft sandra, one with the memory running at 133 CAS 3 and one running at 133 CAS 2, I think they will speak for themselves."

Yeh,good comparison chart but scores are given for a Duron system (w/chipset?).
Each chipset scores different because of how it handles memory. eg. VIA`s 693A is a bad scorer
Anyway my score at 133 333 7,9 is 334 353 generic Sandra2000.
Waiting for Mushkin rev3 to get enough over 150 222 5,7 but most important is to have a memory running at high bus(fsb) for a good OC and best overall performance.
Have you tried to set virtual memory at 2.5x physical memory and available at a second hard drive?
By the way i815E scores good enough.
