PC1066 RDRAM vs. DDR SDRAM

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the tweaking-something-out dept.

Brad wrote into send us his "Comparison of PC1066 RDRAM vs DDR SDRAM. Quote - RDRAM is considerably more expensive that DDR SDRAM, and up until now the 100MHz PC800 specification didn't do well in comparison. Just recently 133MHz PC1066 was launched, and is now officially supported by the new Intel P4 and the Intel 850E core logic chipset, but this time promises to bring memory performance to the next level."

    Why name memory chip standard after the year in which the Battle of Hastings was fought?

      1066 is the only historical date anyone can remember after they leave school.
