Maybe, but are his benchmarks tainted or bogus? Even if they were, they're all Intel product based (no AMD, in other words). Intel won, even though it was with an overclocked, older chipset. I seriously hope Intel continues to offer main memory choices, in terms of what their chipsets support. Let the best man (memory) win, and I'm not sure it's Rambus. The comparison should be on performance, price (included here are yields, manufacturability and testability), ease of use by the RIMM and MOBO people, and reliability. Then, if Rambus doesn't come out on top, Intel should drop them.
