All benchmarks say is that "It's good for *this* application". I've heard that it speeds up mersenne calculations on some MBs. Now, that's nice, but if it doesn't speed it up enough vs its cost..... That's the question. I'm just going to hold my breath for DDR-SDRAM. Cheaper, faster, better supported. Dual Athlon/interleaved DDR memory.
