Re: Benchmarks

Apparently no expense is being spared to produce a benchmarks faster than RDRAM

Here is an interesting post that discusses some of the methods:

"The other fact is that when Tom Pabst or Bert Inquist try to show that Rambus is no better than SDRAM, they are using the very best registered ECC PC133 CAS2 SDRAM that money can buy, including Virtual Channel memory. I can't even find virtual memory at Price Watch or any other comparison shopping site. Registered PC133 CAS2 ECC SDRAM costs about the same as RDRAM, according to price watch--around $275-$300."
