Windsock, <AMD is focusing on a fast 16bit bus architecture.> Kind of like Rambus, don't you think? And to think that people were ridiculing RDRAM for having a tough time sending data down a 16-bit bus at 800 MHz. Yet LDT involves 16-bit data paths running at 1.6 GHz. I wonder if AMD is going to have the same problems with LDT as Intel had with Rambus. OK, so LDT isn't exactly the same as Rambus. LDT uses unidirectional point-to-point signaling while Rambus uses simultaneous bidirectional signaling (almost). But the concept of high-speed signals over a narrow channel is the same. Tenchusatsu
