Hi richard surckla; I suggest a new advertising campaign for Rambus: R A M B U S * The company that has answers for everything * -- Carl P.S. Pretty tough when your big buddy (Intel) comes out with unassailable benchmarks that show that your techology sucks wind, and then dumps you, isn't it.

Richard, If 815 benchmarks better than 820, that is a pretty darn good indicator of latency issues. In fact, there is really no other rational explanation. But I have to remember who I am conversing with. Scumbria

Richard, Rambus' high bandwidth architecture that efficiently supports concurrent memory transactions results in far better latency than SDRAMs. I have a lot of respect for the guys at Firing Squad. They once printed an article saying that K7 had slower floating point than Celeron I (Covington.) You might want to pass this little tidbit on to them, that SDRAM also fully supports concurrent memory transactions. In fact, that was the whole point of SDRAM. Scumbria
