Paul,

Here is what a noted authority said about DRDRAM earlier this year. Too bad Intel didn't listen to him. ;^((

The reality is that no CPU needs DRDRAM. CPU's burst data in and out 32 bytes at a time. That is not enough data to get any benefit out of high bandwidth memory. The only real advantage of DRDRAM over SDRAM is a smaller pin count. High bandwidth is needed for graphics, not CPU's. The whole Intel/Rambus connection is little more than a marketing ploy.
