Rambus chip breaks 1 Ghz (533mhz double pumped)...

Check it out here & here.

Well, actually they broke the 533MHz barrier for ram...not the 1GHz barrier. They lie, its not truly 1066MHz. I mean, I also don't agree with nVidia claiming that DDR boards are 333MHz or 350MHz, thats just not true.

Oh well.

I'm not too excited...did you look at the second link? Looks very limited in abilities and it will cost a LOT for something that MIGHT (PC800 was no par with PC133) be a bit faster than PC133.

The second link shows the module requires it to be soldered down as well. That would require it to be incorporated into a new mobo and might not be a cost effective upgrade for a prior rdram solution.

I have a fealing this will still be wrecked by DDR....
