PC-2100 or PC-2700

I was wondering, how'd they get PC-2100 from DDR at 133mhz FSB? I know how you get 266 from that, but PC-2100, but how does that work?
 
All the pc mark is stating is its theoretical bandwidth output...2.1gb/s or 2100mb/s....Evidently and I dont know the technical specs 266mhz can delievr 2.1gb/s of bandwidth...The amd 266mhz fsb cpus also has the same 2.1gb/s of bandwidth capability.....

PC2700 os 333mhz ddr has a output of 2.7gb/s
pc3000 or 370mhz ddr = 3.0 gb/s
pc3200 or 400mhz ddr = 3.2gb/s

notice how they proportionally scale well....

also notive that 400mhz ddr which is the speed of the quad pumped p4 400fsb chip (ie 1.6a,1.8a,2.0a, etc) which has a max bandwidth of 3.2gb/s...

533fsb p4's = 4.2 gb/s or dual (2x) pc2100 as in the Granite Bay mobos.....
 
Hmm.... interesting.... thx btw 😀 I always wondered about the naming scheme. Didn't make much sense to me the way they were doing it.
 
I've been out of the loop since the P3V4X was king poop 😀 Let me get this straight. If your Mobo runs at 333FSB, then get the PC-2700, if it runs at 266, then get the PC-2100? Is that pretty much it? Or is it deeper than that...
