In late 1999, Nvidia started ripping market share out of the rest of the graphics market with their DDR solutions. Up till that point, RDRAM had been commonly used in graphics cards. But when every graphics house began announcing DDR boards and dumped their RDRAM based boards, it started becoming clearer to Wall Street. This is wrong. RDRAM (any flavor) was never commonly used in graphics cards. Everyone was using SDRAM/SGRAM. One key advantage that DDR had over DRDRAM is that a single design could support both SDRAM and DDR.
