"Some of the parts need additional efforts," said Peter D. MacWilliams, an Intel fellow and director of platform architecture for the company's Desktop Products Group. "We've already seen samples, and we expect to see production parts in the second quarter — a full quarter ahead of the 3Q ramp.

"From my point of view, this ramp is looking as aggressive or more aggressive than before, once this thing gets started," MacWilliams said. The Intel 820 is a crucial piece of silicon, because it enables a PC system to move to a faster, 133-MHz frontside bus and provides the interface for Direct Rambus DRAM, a long-awaited high-speed memory that is expected to boost PC performance in 1999. Initial Rambus-enabled platforms are aimed at corporate users willing to pay in excess of $2,500 for a desktop PC. Direct RDRAM chips are expected to account for between 10 percent and 15 percent of total DRAM sales this year, according to various projections.
