Scumbria, <According to Bilow on the Rambus thread, DRDRAM uses more pins than SDRAM. This is because of additional wires required per data line, to enhance signal integrity.>

Yes, RDRAM needs additional lines to enhance signal integrity at high clock speeds. Yet the pin count is still lower because RDRAM's data path is 1/4 that of SDRAM's, and that more than offsets the additional pins necessary for signal integrity.

By the way, Bilow Carl says a lot of things on the RMBS thread. He likes to distort things just a little in order to make "dead dead dead" a self-fulfilling prophecy for Rambus. (It's not like such tricks are necessary, either, considering the current state of Rambus.)
