OCWorkBench (http://www.ocworkbench.com/index.stm) Reports:
According to a report on Economic Times, VIA is tying up with mainboard manufacturers and memory makers to launch the P4X266 DDR chipset. To date, VIA hasn't got the green light from Intel, but VIA is not wasting time. VIA has the chance of becoming the first to attack the P4 DDR market.
On the other hand, 128MB DDR has dropped to below USD 30. It is getting very close to the price of SDRAM which is staggering around the USD 20 mark. The same amount of RDRAM will cost USD 70. This will definitely help to boost the DDR platforms.
I'm not sure Intel will give that green light anytime soon, seeing how they just released an updated roadmap for Rambus. Heh, oh well. :)
