Re: Has it been confirmed that the first volumes of P4 will run only with RDRAM? I thought Intel had changed that recently. Howver if it is true, for how long before the P4's will take on an alternative.....I think Intel said DDR? Any idea? Ted, Where have you been? P4 is all DRDRAM for at least a year. We hear that DDR chipsets will be out late next year, but with how long it's taking for DDR on Athlon I would guess this date slips to 2002. In other words, Rambus is going to keep helping AMD out for some time to come. chic

ted, the rumor is that with their RMBS agreement, INTC cannot develop a DDR chipset. Therefore they have to help Via develop one. A ways off........... steve
