Re: "Rambus latency is worse than PC100, by quite a bit."

Really? Then Samsung needs you to set them straight.

"DRAM performance is measured with two metrics: bandwidth and latency. Surprisingly, one type of DRAM delivers the highest performance in both areas - the Rambus© DRAM. It is widely recognized that with the availability of the 1.6 gigabyte per second Rambus DRAM (RDRAM©), sustainable system bandwidth has jumped a factor of 10 over SDRAM. What hasn't been as apparent is that RDRAM latency has also been improved relative to SDRAM. "
