AMD is hitting Intel in their soft spot, Corporate Culture. AMD is using open buses like HT and supporting small companies like DRC to take over their sockets. Intel will never go there. AMD is supporting Linux and linuxbios which made it possible for us to do what we did. We talked to Intel and got brushed off. We talked to AMD and were embraced. Intel will never stop the growth AMD is having if they keep their systems closed. AMD is for open systems and Intel is not. AMD is helping innovators and Intel is not. Intel will not change their ways until it is too late.

Since each Opteron has its own memory controler the Dram pins come directly into the DRC module. This gives us direct control over the attached memory. The module is just memory mapped into the processors memory space. The user has an area where they plug in their logic and you read and write into this area via some slice of the memory map.
