Re: People designing in drdram in a large server would use many multiple rambus channels.

Isn't the latency inherent in the rambus module due to the time it takes to set up, then read 8 cells, then set up and perform a serial transfer of that parallel data?

I'm not familiar with this chip set and haven't heard of a direct connection of rambus to any chip. Are you certain that there is no memory controller between the cpu and the memory busses? Are the bus controllers integrated into the chip? Is the chip running 400MHZ through its external bus?
