Scumbria, "It is official now. i845 is a joke."

I wonder who will be laughing?

tomshardware.com

"...i845/SDR-solution is ... lagging almost 10% behind i850/RDRAM with the same processor."
and: "The i845/PC133 is 6.5% slower than i850/PC800"
===================

"Lagging almost 10%" using a single dirt-cheap SDRAM DIMM
as compared to expensive dual-channel Rambus memory!
Even on 2001-benchmarks, streaming-opimized
(read: RAMBUS optimized).

That's a real laugh, in my book at least.

Dell/CPQ/HP will be laughing very hard while
pocketing the price difference between RIMMs
and DIMMs on all business SKUs, not counting for
cheaper and royalty-free SDRAM chipset and
4-layer boards.
