Re: "You need to scratch your head harder. Memory is 4-way interleaved, each way at 83. Memory bus != EV6 bus. 83x4=333MHz. 8x333=2.6GB/sec. Remember your whinning about pin count?" Nonsense Ali, you can do better than this. The K7 has been boasting about a 200mhz memory bus leveraged off the EV6 architecture. I realize the benefit of interleaving but that wasn't the claim. 83*4 was not the claim. Yes you can get good bandwidth but at an enormous cost in pincount. Where is the low cost 200mhz 64 bit memory bus? EP
