Warning On Fujitsu Siemens
« on: June 04, 2005, 04:09:06 AM »
Careful if you buy the above brand. I bought one for my youth club and one for my workplace (Scenic). For curiosity I ran Sandra which reported 35% Memory bandwidth efficiency. Not vey good. CPUID showed why. The machine shipped with PC 2700 on a P4 3 gig running at 400 Mhz.

On testing the Youth Club PC the same thing showed up!

Now for office apps this wouldn't be noticed and to be fair, FS don't claim to be supplying an enthusiast market. Just watch it out there, these OEM's are up to all sorts. I plan to change my RAM to PC3200 as I use it for occasional multiplayer gaming. Also I can't abide any of my machines running at less than optimal, even for databases.
