AMD Moving to a 400MHz Bus?

An anonymous reader writes "According to this tantalizing Infoworld Scoop, AMD soon introduce a 400 Mhz bus. Seems that SiS's big announcement at CEBIT is the SiS748 chipset, which supports both 400 MHz DDR & AGP 8X, and is targeted at the upcoming Athlon 3200+."

    If they keep on getting faster at this rate, we'll soon be able to benefit from the speed of this ;-)

    Wow troll, you sure type like some of the Americans I know. I somehow bet you are an American Troll, but if I am wrong, look at the bright side; you get all the good PS2 games before we do.

    Oh yeah, those missles that are flying over you are not from the U.S.A. but we will probably spend American lives protecting you from one of those big bad boys from landing on your island.

    "If Saddam Hussein fails to comply and we fail to act or
    we take some ambiguous third route, which gives him yet
    more opportunities to develop his program of weapons of
    mass destruction and continue to press for the release of
    sanctions and ignore the commitments he's made? Well, he
    will conclude that the international community's lost its
    will. He will then conclude that he can go right on doing
    more to build an arsenal of devastating destruction. If we
    fail to respond today, Saddam and all those who would follow
    in his footsteps will be emboldened tomorrow. The stakes
    could not be higher. Some way, someday, I guarantee you he'll
    use the arsenal."

    Good point. Kim Jung Il is even more fighting mad than _I_ am. Please protect me from that motherfucking schoolyard bully.

    But please. Stop harping on the French for expressing their rights to free speech. Yeah, they are in bed with the Iraqi economy. So fucking what?

    What the hell is this person talking about? An order of magnitude faster? Surely you don't think that Intel runs on a 4GHz bus? Surely you aren't implying that AMD has 'finally' broken the 400 MHZ CPU clock barrier. Perhaps you don't know what 'Order of magnitude' means. In general, people consider an order of magnitude a factor of 10, e.g. 10 -> 100, 4GHZ -> 40 GHZ.

    the only intel system (p4) i used (work machine) managed to kill every harddrive i put in it after about 2 days (4hdds in total). switched to amd, not a single problem since. i've been using amd since the k6 200mhz, and have never been disapointed with them.
    my VIA KT400 chipset has no problems either btw.

    Dear Father O'Day,

    Thank you for your heartwarming letter of support! We have worked hard to establish our marketshare in the gay computer sector, and it's letters like yours that make all our effort and rectal soreness worthwhile.

    You will doubtless be pleased to hear that we are partnering with Redhat to make Linux the default operating system of future Apple Macintosh computers; this will put us in a position to dominate all homosexual aspects of the computing experience.

    Please continue to enjoy our products, and keep an eye out for future Macintoshes with the Linux preinstallation option. Remember, young boys are especially fond of Linux!

    Sincerely,
    Steven Jobs
