I remaine a bit confused over the memory issue with the P4 2.2 chip.
I had thought that RD RAM was supposed to be a dead end. I know it has been used with the P4's from the beginning, but I thought it had been panned as overpriced and a "dead end". Yet, here it is still being available for use on the new Northwood core.
So, from a performance standpoint is it the memory to put in a new system. Or would DDR-SDRAM be better? If I understood what I've read on Tom's Hardware earlier today corredtly, SDRAM is not the answer from the standpoint of performance.
If the RD-RAM is preferred over the DDR-SDRAM, then by a lot, or does it only minimally improve performance?
Thanks,
BH Davis
