Carl, <But that wouldn't take into account the inefficiencies in DDR SDRAM interfaces. By contrast, the EV6 is very efficient.>

VIA's DDR chipset for Pentium III did not show much of a performance improvement over PC133. The FSB was a limiting factor, even though it is very efficient.

Based on this single counterexample, I expect the extra memory bandwidth on nForce to be useful only for the integrated graphics, not for the CPU.
