We all nearly fell out of our collective chairs when we saw the picture showing the VAST memory bandwidth that the Pentium 4 + Rambus solution provides. This is truly a remarkable number. There has been a lot of talk lately about Memory bandwidth. It's common knowledge that SDRAM just isn't going to be able to keep up with the ever-escalating clock speeds and system bus speeds that have been coming out of both the Intel and AMD camps. Rambus has really been in question over the last several months. Its high cost and questionable performance have really prevented it from being considered a viable option for the average user. I think this benchmark shows that in accordance with the 400 MHz system bus that Willy provides, Rambus is capable of pushing some incredible numbers. We can only hypothesize at this point on how DDR-RAM will perform alongside a Pentium 4 processor. I look forward to some comparative numbers when a DDR+Pentium 4 solution becomes available. </I.
