Re: Latency Impact An issue that I've tried to get discussed on the thread is rambus vs. Virtual Channel DRAM. VC is very similar to SDRAM but uses static registers to provide better latency and overcome some of the inefficiencies of the SDRAM bus. It is also suitable for either standard or DDR. I think that the impact of reducing latency will be far greater than the benefit of streaming data that is provided by rambus's on chip interleave of banks. VC is also no royalty, only 3% more die area, and uses existing testers, etc. I think that this is why AMD decided to go with VC and DDR instead of rambus. VIA, ALI, and SIS are all supporting Virchual Channel in their chipsets that are sampling now for Q4 99 release. I'd be very interested in your opinion of Virtual Channel.
