    Interesting. Wonder if tight timings can be used at full fsb as opposite to the Intel sollution. IF so, then this might be a winner but if not, i dont see anything special with this at all.

    I believe in the conspiracy theory here. Memory manufacturers have ran out of room on the DDR technology and still feels that DDR have some money to earn from. So a "new" chipset is being invented and how convenient, it´s using "off-the-shelf", PC2100 with just a little PLL soldered on the stick!!
    Are we going to see this chipset grow from PC2100 to PC4000 now as well? I believe that the memory manufacturers have something to do with this. Then again, quad-bumped PC4000 would rock.
