Cirrus,

if the Tehama chipset has two DRDRAM channels that effectively double bandwidth of DRDRAM from 1.6GB/s to 3.2GB/s and Intel goes the MTH/MRH route by allowing PC133 SDRAM to be
used with Tehama, does that mean there will also be two SDRAM channels which double bandwidth from 1.06GB/s to 2.1GB/s?


I would guess that they would use two SDRAM/DDR channels to optimize bandwidth. If an MTH is used, the interface to the memory controller is unchanged- so two DRAM ports would still be present.
