To add in to the discussion rambus vs ddr, I just wanted to add in that my SiS 645 based Soyo 478 motherboard was released Q4 of 2001and utilized dual channel ddr266/333mhz. It was also under half the cost of a family friends RAMBUS Dell from a bit earlier than that as well as being much faster. …

Just chiming in to ask whether you are all done now with the personal attacks? It's not much fun to see you all calling each other idiots. @Scali, I see you are heavily defending your view points, but less personal attacks would do wonders for your facts. When you read through this and you often see …

Therefore the standard configuration for RDRAM was dual channel (making it 32-bit wide, like SDR and DDR), and the minimum speed was 3.2 GB/s, as I said before. Dell sold craploads of 850 chipset systems with dual channel 600mhz RIMMS. Too many customers couldn't stomach the price for faster …

Dell sold craploads of 850 chipset systems with dual channel 600mhz RIMMS. Too many customers couldn't stomach the price for faster modules, I guess. Either that, or Dell just figured that they'd sell more if they had a 'bargain' model. Even so, at PC600, you sill get 2.1 GB/s, which is still as …

Scali wrote on 2019-12-30, 11:12: So not really sure what your point is. Fact remains that RAMBUS delivered superior bandwidth, at a premium. Your statement implied that 800mhz RIMMs were the slowest option. I was just clarifying that.

Your statement implied that 800mhz RIMMs were the slowest option. I was just clarifying that. Well, I would say that in the context of my post, it would be obvious that I meant that the oldest/slowest *chipset* for RAMBUS support allowed for 3.2 GB/s with the PC800 RIMMs. I was talking about the …

As there doesn't seem to be the will to tone it down, let's close this for now. You want to call people stupid, go outside and tell that to people's faces. This is not the place for your issues.
