QDR

[flamethrower205]

Is there any new news on when to expect QDR. I can't wait for it to come out- that's when my next comp upgrade will be.

When I rule the world, Apple will only mean the fruit.

Can you actually wait 1-2 years?

Back to you Tom...

The truth is that when QDR comes out I'm sure that all video cards will be integrated into mobo like in the case of nforce. Imagine- a geforce 4 or 5 w/ 2gb of ram. Heh, 3d studio max will have a great time.

When I rule the world, Apple will only mean the fruit.

QDR = DDR-II

Nice Nvidia and ATi users get a Cookie.... Yummy

No, QDR=4 bits per clock, DDR-2=2 bits per clock, 166MHz or 200MHz clock rate. Multiplied by the bus width.

Here is a recent news article on <A HREF="http://www.sysopt.com/articles/qdr-sram/index.html" target="_new"> QDR</A> for the bandwidth lovers.

But Microsoft Windows XPS SP35 need 30GB of ram to boot before installing office.

Only the insane prosper.
Only those who prosper can judge what is sane.

Oops, you are correct rcf84. Disregard that post. My bad.

"QDR chips in a CSP package using a FET-switched module could potentially achieve fantastic speeds -- up to 6.4 Gbytes/s, according to industry executives. Sources said it will likely take a year or more to develop QDR SDRAM prototypes. The DDR speed boosters are considered interim upgrades and ultimately will be succeeded by DDR-2, the next big memory architectural change, which is expected sometime in 2003. "

i don't know the credibility of it but it's something to go by.
