Re: The question among all PC habbists as to what
SDRAMs could be clocked at 100Mhz bus speed is remained
unknown.

That will the the PC133 spec stuff. A lot of companies have already gotten that one out.

Isn't 10ns SDRAM supposed to handle 100Mhz bus speeds?
1/10 = .10 or 100 Mhz bus?
12 ns SDRAM is supposed to handle 83 Mhz. 1/12 =.0833 or 83 Mhz bus.
15 ns " 1/15 =.0666 or 66 Mhz bus.

I guess the key is "supposed to". Seen any 6 ns SDRAM yet?
BTW, I hear Micron makes 40ns EDO RAM...that might handle it.

Re: The success and the missing link on 100Mhz bus speed system is
the SDRAM.

When are we going to see the 100mHz CPUs from Cyrix (I like their prices better than AMD/Intel)? How about video cards? I know most cards can take 75mHz/2 and it would be a waste to just run at 'asyn' 33mHz. Think they will speed up the PCI bus in the 100mHz boards? Or better yet, go to 66mHz 64bit PCI bus and get the video cards there to boot.
