Uh, KZNerd, I'm not certain about this, but I really don't think latency will be affected by slowing DRDRAM down to 600 MHz. The transmission speed is independent of latency. Of course, this is all assuming that Rambus isn't just slowing the clock down when it downbins DRDRAM modules to 600 MHz, that Rambus is also adjusting the number of latency clocks to compensate.

Even if the core access time is the same, NET latency will definitely increase. Not 33% of course, but 5-10%.

If Camino ends up being slower than the BX/PC100, there will be hell to pay.
