Multi, Do you have something substantial to base this on, or is it merely speculation/wishful thinking? The high price of DRDRAM and low volumes of 820/DRDRAM systems, are like a 2X4 hitting us on the head. Scumbria

Multi, Samsung acknowledged very low yields in the early stages of RDRAM production I'm impressed by Samsung's openness. Have they made any comments that the problem has been fixed? Check this out: usa.samsungsemi.com the 128Mb DDR SDRAM operates using a memory bus clock of 100MHz or 133MHz, the same speeds as PC100 and PC133 SDRAMs. This is significant to the system designer in that common motherboard infrastructure components are used and motherboard design rules are understood in production today. Additionally, a significant benefit to the customer is that a one-chip DDR/SDR design allows the new product to support both PC100 and the new PC133 standard Single-Data-Rate SDRAMs as a fabrication manufacturing option for maximum customer flexibility. The company plans to begin mass producing the 128Mb DDR SDRAM version along with the 64Mb version in the second half of 1999. Samsung Electronics is leading the way for standardizing DDR SDRAMs. It has endorsed and adopted new DDR standards proposed by the Joint Electronics Device Engineering Council (JEDEC). The company expects to be an early leader supplying to the DDR market in the second half of 1999. Scumbria
