Tinker, "Dual RDRAM channel pays off for the i850 chipset; landing the largest memory bandwidth number we have ever seen."

I already gave you a "cryptic" answer in my previous
post, but you seem to not paying attention :0)
The straight answer is that the Sandra STREAM benchmark
is artificial and has very little resemblance to
reality. It is almost like bragging that K6 performs
NOP command twice as fast as compared to Pentiums.

"Even AMD's newly released 100 mhz double-pumped DDR platform..."

I am not sure about their definition of "newly released",
but I was under impression that AMD has already released
a 133/266 bus. This link may give you an idea about relative
performance of DDR and Rambus computing platforms:

"820 was not [optimized] for RDRAM."

The i820 was _designed_ for RDRAM exclusively.
I wonder how can you argue that it was not
"optimized" for RDRAM...

Straight answers are preferred :)
