Paul - Re: Rambus article.

Good article. It also addresses the c't magazines report of 1/20 caching errors with Cumine 733 and i820:

Rambus was reportedly at the heart of another reported anomaly, this one a caching error seen with 733MHz Pentium III chips, the 820 chip and early Rambus modules. This anomaly, first reported in the German magazine c't, happens only when the older Rambus modules are used and should not effect end users who purchase new PCs with the latest Rambus modules, Intel officials said.

"With newer Rambus modules everything works fine," confirmed the IT manager who tested the 733MHz Pentium III and 820 with Rambus memory. "It seems that only the combination between Camino-Board and older Rambus modules is causing the cache error."


Maybe this item can be put to rest now.
