    AMD Phenom X4 9600
    Gigabyte MA790FX-DQ6 (BIOS updated to BETA F2i for stability at DDR2-1066)
    Crucial Ballistix Tracer PC2-8500 @ 1066 5-5-5-18 2T 2.1V *Using "ganged" memory mode shows 128-bit bus in the BIOS and in AMD Overdrive, and gave better benchmark scores for gaming tests, so we used it*
    ATi Radeon 3850 256MB (out of the box drivers)
    Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 500GB SATA2
    OCZ GameXStream 600W
    Generic DVD-ROM
    They tested in ganged mode which means 1*128 Bit. So normally they should get equal scores compared to a K8. But the canadians again experienced horrible memory results in ganged mode. I guess at this time ganged and unganged are just a placebo. K10 works with just one 64 bit IMC.
