according to this picture of some rambus memory taken from newegg.com it appears that corsair too has fallen for marketing its components towards the internet. the statement on the memory packaging reads, "memory at internet speed." i mean come on, like if we're using pc100 or 800mhz rambus it's going to change the speed we browse the internet??? i mean i would expect this from intel or rambus but not corsair. anyways let me know that you just think.

Well, "memory at internet speed" is just marketing BS, sort of like "optimized for Windows XP".. Not a big deal since you see it in every industry. (i.e. "New and Improved!")
 
Actually it does speed up the internet. Well sort of. For a server, speed does matter. You wouldn't want internet servers running on archaic old slow processor/memory configs would you? Course for browsing it doesn't matter. Come to think of it what is the slowest PC that can still browse the net? Pentium 100? 486? 386? Can win9x even run on a 386?
 
lol, well, as we all know 486 66 = celeron 400, and they can surf the web...

j/k, I kinda like the celerys, I mean, without them it would be one less reason why people would enjoy their durons. 🙂
 
i'll second that one right there spike....and in respect to what element had to say about web servers, that's very true. but if you look at what kind of marketing statement they made, anyone who's purchasing memory for a server would know is untrue and the statement is geared for the average user.

any kind of internet based, client relied upon service can benifit from a memory upgrade...


Proxy : much better web browsing
router : more packets being transferred
mail ; faster email processing and retrieval
