An AMD spokesperson in Germany has stated that Micron PC will delay shipment of its 760-based DDR systems with a 266MHz FSB. The problem "stems from noise" that can be fixed with "very minor" motherboard modifications.
The Register reports that MicronPC.com in the US has delayed shipment of the 255MHz FSB variant of its Millennia Max Xp PC models due to the same problem. Moreover, Micron has stopped production of the 760 chipset and increased delivery time from 56 to 98 days. Gigabyte, that discovered the problem, has added hardware filters to reduce the noise and Micron is testing the modified motherboard. A US Micron spokesman said the "worst-case scenario was that shipments wouldn't start before February 12."
