That's what you get with Caminogate (a/k/a Intel 820 chipset): a Pentium III-based system with an RDRAM-based chipset that (even with PC800 RDRAM) performs no better than a system with an identical CPU running on Intel's tried-and-true 440BX chipset with the SDRAM running at the same speed as the processor's FSB speed.

Yep, that "weird" motherboard that accepts SIMM as well as SDRAM could have been from anybody. You see, most major motherboard makers that offer motherboards that use either the Intel 430VX or the 430TX chipset (or any of its "VX-Pro" or "TX-Pro" imitators from VIA, SiS, VLSI or ALi) put both 72-pin SIMM sockets and 168-pin SDRAM sockets on many of those motherboards.
