Kap, <Its preliminary validation including simulation data on 2 RIMM only designs shows no failures, the slide says.> I am confused:) How hardware VALIDATION can include SIMULATION data? So, is this still a "theory", or real hardware? Looks like again a sort of vaporware... I guess Elmer has good overtime pay these days :) But after all, this is "The Register", what do you expect? From their other article: theregister.co.uk <Over at HardOCP, the boys have a more technical version of this which says that low launch voltage exceeds the specification and derates RDRAM drive strength. It's something to do with position sensitivity.> I am not sure about interpretation of the first sentence, but the second one sounds very familiar :) <Intel's i840 is a chipset that works>.. which includes AGP4x... Do you know that the Intel AGP 4X specifications call for 100ps edges, which is 1/3 of the RAMBUS specifications? I wonder what does this mean for manufacturers :) Take care...
