The 1.6-Gbyte/second peak bandwidth for the full-speed RDRAMs compares with a peak bandwidth of 1.06 Gbytes/s for the PC133 SDRAMs. "By tuning the system, we can get 90 percent effective bandwidth [compared with peak]," against about 60 to 70 percent for SDRAMs, MacWilliams said. "Overall, RDRAMs offers about 30 to 33 percent more bandwidth for memory-intensive applications."

dave,
previous press reports quote mcwilliams as saying 3x the bandwidth...intel site says rambus provides 300% bandwidth performance...

this guy's own numbers conflict with his statements..
1.6 x 90% = 1.44

1.06 x 65% = 0.69


that is over a 200% difference...he must be a harvard man!
