Camino Deliberately Delayed

In closing I'd like to mention that there will still be a while until Intel will release the '820' chipset, also known under the code name 'Camino'. This chipset is supposed to be the first to support direct RDRAM, but unfortunately it will not support any other RAM-type anymore. The poor availability of direct RDRAM and the pathetically high price of this questionably high end memory type are supposed to be the main reason why Intel is delaying the launch of '820'. SDRAM for 133 MHz FSB has become available now, so that VIA's next Slot1-chipset with 133 MHz FSB-support seems to make a lot more sense than 'Camino' or 'Intel 820'.

Will Intel release Coppermine without Camino?
