KZNerd, <Of course there is no one doing that in reverse, right. Not Intel, not Rambus, not you or anyone else on this thread?> You'll notice that even Intel is softening its stance on RDRAM. From a CNET article posted a few days back, "Intel says it has billed Rambus not as a miracle cure for PC performance today but as a necessary step in coming years to be able to take advantage of ever-faster processors." By the way, if you noticed the tone of my posts, I've also tempered my optimism with caution over the past six months. I can't speak for Rambus or anyone else on this thread. But I do notice that the anti-Rambus folks sure haven't toned down their jihad, and in fact they may have been emboldened by the Camino delay and the softening of Intel's position. <Sorry, the independent benchmarks of Rambus all show them being slower than Sdram. So it's reasonable to expect that they'll be even slower against DDR.> KZ, if you really believe those benchmarks, then I'm afraid there's not much more we can talk about without this degenerating into a flamewar.

KZ, Sorry, the independent benchmarks of Rambus all show them being slower than Sdram. So it's reasonable to expect that they'll be even slower against DDR. Nope, sorry, gotapex reversed the results of their first review (after they received new drivers) and added that the 820 will be a winner. With every bit as much assurance as others on this thread have when they throw out some totally unverified claim that says Rambus is going to be just ducky on some app that doesn't even exist today. versus So it's reasonable to expect that they'll be even slower against DDR. You've just illustrated Tenchusatsu's point. You don't see the hypcrisy between these two statements? Yes, of course, all Rambus advocates on this thread are entirely open minded on this subject and never selectively use good Rambus news while ignoring bad Rambus news. Bert is satan because he continuously tries to show the good side of Sdram and the bad side of Rdram. Actually, we manage quite well without you guys. Negative news gets posted as well as the positive. The difference is that you just don't understand that you're just as bad the other way. You're so blinded by your anti-Intel bias that you can't be objective. And, yes, Bert is Satan <G>. Dave
