The 3972k of System RAM does indicate that you have the upgraded eMate.
However, I can personally vouch for the fact that it still seems
r e a l l y s l o w compared to an MP2x00. The alleged speed increase
was not noticable by me.

Supposedly when the upgrade is installed, the eMate goes from a 16bit data
path to a 32bit data path. This may be so, but it sure doesn't double the
speed.

I've overclocked my eMate and that is a slight increase in speed, but still
doesn't touch an MP2k.
