Steve,

Nope.. sorry.. but the ram speeds that are currently available won't allow that.. it's that simple.. even with RBusDram the big penalty comes for the first byte clock hit.

But L1 and L2 reduce the access to main memory to a fraction of non-L1/L2 designs at a fraction of the price.

This design is satisfactory in most desktop applications. A really fast memory access (latency and throughput) is very important in servers of all kinds.
