Another way out for INTEL not mentioned yet is to re-spec the BX chipset for 133 MHz. Viola! Intel has PC133 support, sockets for all its CuMines and it doesn;t need RAMBUS. I think I read on one of the overclocker sites that the AGP (or maybe it was PCI) clock was synchronous with the bus clock, so you can't really do that. Besides, it wouldn't give you AGP 4x or ATA66. Why even bother. No, I think Intel will be selling a lot of Coppermines at 100Mhz FSB with BX/GX chipsets.
