Steve,

The ideal graphics card will have multiple high bandwidth memory ports, to access different parts of the framebuffers and texture buffers.

DRDRAM is a good choice of memory because of the low pin count, which is multiplied by the number of ports.

The problem with such a design is that it is an order of magnitude too costly to be practical as a commercial product.
