AMD vs Intel (RAM Wars)

[Aggressor Prime]

Intel fans are going to go mad over this article.
Facts for Intel Motherboard:
Top RIMM single speed - 2.4GB/s (Samsung RIMM4800)
Top RIMM quad speed - 9.6GB/s
Top DDR single speed - 4.4GB/s
Top DDR dual speed - 8.8GB/s (Corsair XMSLL PC4400)
As you see from this, the RIMMs beat the DDRs.
And with XDR and DDR2, you can expect the XDRs to win.
Thus, for Intel CPU users, if you want the top RAM, get the expensive RIMMs.
Intel thinks they have AMD by this, but they are wrong.
AMD users can still beat the Intel ones through Hyper Transport.
In a dual CPU solution w/ Dual Channel PC2700, the RAM outcome is 10.6 GB/s.
In a quad CPU solution w/ Dual Channel PC2700, the RAM outcome is 21.2 GB/s.

Thus, for all you Intel fans, go ahead and buy your RIMMs.
For all you AMD fans, if you want to beat Intel, switch to multi-CPU environments.
