Jim, <What type of RAM does the Tulloch support...?>

Short answer: RDRAM. (Horrors!!!)

Tulloch is a chipset Intel is planning on delivering for Willamette/Northwood which features a single RDRAM channel instead of the dual-RDRAM channel that Tehama supports. The plan is to make Tulloch lower-cost than Tehama so that Intel can push a Northwood/Tulloch platform into the mainstream.

Of course, as I learned over the past few years, Intel's roadmaps are very subject to change.

Jim,

If the Taiwan mobo makers don't support Willy/Tehama/Rambus...doesn't bode well for the Willy launch and RAMBUS...
I guess Intel can force it's own motherboards on the market..Dell will take them.


But if there is a single source for the CPU, single source / single design of the chipset, single source of motherboards, what to you think the chances are that one of these 3 will fail?
