VC133 Ram

[tw1164]

Are there any benefits in using this ram over "normal" PC133 Ram? My motherboard supports is and its not that much more then normal ram. Its also cheaper then PC150 ram.

i've heard the athlons get better preformance with vc ram, however, never seen it before this... I don't know. Run benchmarks now, add some and run it again with the vc stuff and tell me... hehe.

actually vcm gives a slight increase in real-world bandwidth for via boards in general. its pretty hard to find thou.

it used to be closely priced with normal sdram, but as ram prices fell down, vcm prices stayed the same.

Andy will be publishing a VCM benchmark suite shortly.

I don't know the timeline on it but it should be within the week.
