Hi all; Re bus turn around. The previous link also provides an explanation of why Rambus' short turn around latency is not a significant factor in memory system performance.

Basically, the chipset will automatically group together write accesses so that they all occur at once, instead of being split up among the reads. That way, the bus has to be turned around far less often.
