125069 2003-03-02 11:37:00 That site you gave isn't very up to date as it didn't give any info on double data rate ram. mikebartnz (21)
125070 2003-03-02 12:01:00 yea it does
www.webopedia.com
if you type ddr it gives you "Dial-on-Demand Routing" but lower down it has a link to "DDR-SDRAM"

125071 2003-03-02 20:18:00 You are so right. I hadn't scrolled down the page far enough. If you go on to read the bit in Tom's Hardware you will probably give rdram a miss as it is basically a dead duck now. Intel are giving up on rdram and going for ddr ram. mikebartnz (21)
125072 2003-03-03 03:00:00 I've got two boards of static RAM: one has 8k bytes, the other has 4k. That is "k", not "M". They cost about $250-$350 in the late 70s, for kits.

It's expensive (still) because it uses transistor flipflops, not capacitors. No refresh required, which made it go faster than dynamic.

125074 2003-03-03 03:42:00 What was fast then might not be a top seller these days: I think the 8k one has 16 250ns 2114s on it. The 4k has 32 2102s, I think it was slower. Graham L (2)
