Goutama,

<The Athlon FSB connections are point to point connections and hence much easier to implement on motherboards than a very high speed bus like Rambus.>

You are absolutely right about point-to-point being easier to implement than bussed structure.

The emperical data, however, suggests that even in point-to-point configuration, moving around 64-bits of data at 200MHz is non-trivial.
