I’ve got a co-worker ruunning an AMD K6-III 400 clone system at home
that has produced some unusual results when adding memory. He has
tried a number of benchmark and system mark tests, but all produce
the same results. When he has 32 Megs of RAM installed, the system
benchmarks normal, but when he adds more RAM, it slows down.
He has tried different memory, different combinations or RAM, and
even a CPU change to AMD K6-II 450, always producing the same
“more RAM, lower benchmarks”. He has even gotten the same results
using two alternate motherboards. What could we be dealing with here?
