Hi John Walliker; Re: "In this situation, the registered DDR266 memory will have a longer latency and according to you will therefore have worse performance than PC133."

You're getting dangerously off message (but possibly accurate) here. Remember that Rambus bulls are supposed to believe that bandwidth is more important than latency, so even registered DDR266 is supposed to be faster than unregistered PC133. Otherwise, you could end up explaining why PC133 beats PC800, and we wouldn't want that now, would we.

In most systems, running only very rare memory usage, I would think that a registered DDR266 would be at best comparable to a PC133, and likely slower. But PC800 is also at best comparable and likely slower, while unregistered DDR266 will beat both PC800 and PC133.
