New RDRAM Roadmap

[Athlon4all]

VR-Zone has posted from the RDF a new roadmap for RDRAM. It shows that 64bit PC1066 will be hitting in late 2002-early 2003 with PC1200 hitting mid-2003 first in 32bit and then later in 64bit. The truth is that the Pentium 4's fsb wont need anything more than Dual Channel DDR333 in Prescott so it will depend on which is cheaper, 64bit PC1066/PC1200 or Springdale with DDR333. There are some "errors" however on it. They have DC DDR DDR266 hitting in early 2003 with DDR333 in 2004 when Springdale is slated to hit in early Q2-2003. But anyway, its kind of hillarious that they have required bandwidth for PC on the chart and they even say that there isnt any need for their solutions today!!!! lol

someone should come up with a royalty-free serial memory scheme to put rambus out of its misery

Or better yet, RDRAM should become an open standard.

Indeed. Why would RAMBUS give away it's most important asset: RDRAM tech?

I know I don't work for free and I don't see why anyone would expect RAMBUS to do so.
