<You have yet to post any specific data that disproves the dramreview technical data that RDRAM has better overall average latency than SDRAM.>

Your lovely "dramreview",

dramreview.com ,

says in concluding section themselves:

"Memory system latency as seen by the processor is a complex function of the interaction of many different device and system parameters. Modeling these interactions accurately is difficult and imprecise, leaving actual measurement as the best method of understanding system performance and behavior..."


This renders their perverted attempts to "prove"
better Rambus latency as useless. Why? Because the
best "actual measurement" would be an application-based
benchmark. And it is a wide known fact that Rambus
systems fails to regular SDRAM-133 system (i815)
despite of vastly superior marketing "paramaters".

<I will make the question very simple. Does RDRAM have better latency than SDRAM
when there are more than two transactions waiting to be serviced? Yes or no?>

And the answer is _when_? :) :)

<As I've already posted before, current benchmarks do not do justice or measure the high bandwidth multithreaded multitasking net aware applications of today. Current benchmarks today are old (most of them were written during the single app DOS days) and measure old world apps. The world has moved on. >

As _you_ posted? Really? The most popular BAPCO
Sysmark2000 benchmark is a collection of interacting
mostly multithreaded applications.
These applications are well "of today's". They are
simply most recent market applications.

I guess you just made up another Rambus lie,
which will go into Carl' list
siliconinvestor.com
under #m: all benchmarks are old..
;) ;)
