Steve,

SO if RDRAM is too costly and you want to build this system with the equivalent memory bandwidth of 32 RDRAM channels, what architecture would you use?

It is not just a matter of the RDRAM being too costly. Everything in the system is too costly. The graphics engine which uses 32 DRAM channels of any type will be prohibitively expensive to manufacture. Throw in the high cost of DRDRAM, and the problem is massively compounded.

Been there, done that!

I am thinking Intel will take some ~1.5B profits from the sale of MU stock and get RDRAM ramped at Samsung, Toshiba or some of the other big memory manuf. co. for the Pentium 4.
