Jim,

A few notes from the AMD announcement that you might want to think about:

DDR memory is the highest-bandwidth and
lowest latency PC memory technology currently available

Both the AMD-760? chipset and DDR memory modules are planned to be available in the second half of 2000. DDR memory heavily leverages existing Synchronous Dynamic Random
Access Memory (SDRAM) technologies, the most common memory found in today's leading PCs. Next-generation DDR memory is thus expected to be manufactured at cost levels that are in line with today's
mainstream PC memory costs.

Jim,

INTEL has said that they will use DDR at 100MHZ in their servers later this year or perhaps early next year. So DDR will happen in the same time frame. At that time, if not before, there will be production chipsets for DDR.

Intel also said they would not use PC-133 SDRAM, but after they lost a lot of market share, they decided to go back to PC-133. The same thing may happen if the competition releases DDR-266.
