After the initial introduction of the i815, three more variants would eventually surface to claim differing segments of the market.

2001 | On a side note, yes, I'm well aware
that Iwill states that the BD133 has a maximum bus speed of 150 MHz. However,
with a newer official BIOS revision, it allows you to scale all the way up to 200 MHz.
Of course, Sandra starts off our tests...

As we see, the board, CPU
and ram scale quite nicely. This is pretty much to be expected as obviously,
the higher the FSB, the faster the computer.
Next we see how the harddrive handles it this drastic change
in speed... Do IDE controllers like to be overclocked? Do they perform better?
Well, let's find out!
