Don, DDR that runs faster than 5.5ns seems to be very hard to find. ATI announced 64MB and 32MB DDR radeon boards, and all they had were 5.5ns ddr that they clocked to 183MHz. Judging from the price of the boards, their fast ddr sourcing may not be that cheap either, but that could just be a high msrp to maximize profits. There's probably a sharp delta in price between 7ns ddr (143Mhz) and 5.5ns. Also noticed that many PC133 SDR out there is actually using 8ns except they raised the CAS latency by 1 clk over the 7ns in the system bios. True 7ns sdr dimms is also more expensive. Sneaky, eh?
