<Nonsense Ali, you can do better than this.>
Sure I can.
<Yes you can get good bandwidth but at an enormous cost in pincount>
You idiot. Read again and keep scratching your head.
Don't forget to thank me for these
generous explanations.

Elmer,

>Re: Yes you can get good bandwidth but at an enormous cost in >pincount.

I think there is only one bus but the memory chips are interleaved.

The pin count is NOT increased.

You do however have 4 times the memory if you will.

So the bus is actually running at 333Mhz.

So the bus is not the limiting factor it is DRAM speed.

An here they are using slow DRAM.

Regards,

Kash.
