DDR roll out continues, 143 PriceWatch entries, up from 66 only 31 days ago.

I just added another mobo review where SDRAM beats DDR again. I think we are 3 for 3 where SDRAM beats DDR memory. This time the mobo vendor decided to make the comparison easy to comprehend. They included both DDR and SDRAM sockets on the same mobo. How interesting. Why would anyone want to put SDRAM on their system when DDR memory acording to you will be as cheap as SDRAM within 60 days.
Also, there was the typical memory instability issues cropping up again at 133 MHz FSB.

Why does this remind me of the old RDRAM to SDRAM translator 820 chipset motherboards from Intel which had both RIMM sockets and DIMM sockets. Gee carl can you remind me why those mobos never made it to market.

RMBS may not collect on SDRAM or DDR royalties but MM are never going to make money on SDRAM. They will be begging for settlement with RMBS if Intel's P4 sales meet expectations. That is the real question. Not if RMBS owns DDR memory or if DDR is better than SDRAM.
