Re: "Don't they just have two sets of 100 MHz sdram hanging on the chip set which muxes it down to one set at 200 MHz into the K7? Takes a lot of pins on the chip set but I believe that the K7 has a 64 byte line size that it wants to burst in quickly."

This is the solution DEC showed. It is unclear exactly what AMD will do but I'll bet they do the same thing, and yes it is expensive but keep in mind that expense is not a consideration at AMD. If they can do any harm to Intel's bottom line that is reward enough.
