Re: Future, ...cpu's, will perform only marginally better than current cpu's without the bandwidth of Rambus...

Hi Mohamed,

DDR 266 has 30% greater bandwidth than the fastest rambus, and costs little more than PC100, and doesn't have the heat and density problems of rambus.

Boise, Idaho, November 9, 1999 - Micron Technology, Inc., today announced that its internally developed DDR demonstration platform has shown significant advantages in performance benchmark testing over other high-bandwidth solutions. These tests confirm that DDR SDRAM delivers the high-bandwidth, low-latency performance needed to keep pace with advanced microprocessors and graphics subsystems.

PC266 DDR SDRAMs function at data rates of 266Mbps and provide system-level bandwidth of 2.1GB per second (PC2100). Micron?s platform, using PC2100 DIMMs, achieved industry-leading scores in multiple benchmark tests. For example, the DDR SDRAM platform demonstrated strong performance results in two key industry tests, the StreamD benchmark and Intel?s Platform Bandwidth testing.

Regards,

Dan
