Im glad to see Rambus screwing over all these D-Ram manufactures, as they all violated rambus's NDA and used there technology with the help of the scumm lords JEDEC. Rambus has since been screwed over by the FTC to make matters worse, FTC reduced there loyalitys- and actually ending all loyalities in 3 years.
I would hope that Rambus would actually go into manufacturing and make there own chips. Sure would help in the long run.
Btw, Those who say "Rambus ram sucked"
Yeah.....Were not talking about that. Rambus Technology is/was used in Sdram,DDR, GDDR and Etc, only according to FTC/JEDEC that DDR2 was a "new" technology. Which comes from retarded politicians getting in the way of a non educated FTC ruling. We know that DDR2 was still built on Rambus's Technology....( Its just Jedec has the government lobbiest to back them)
Actually, Dvboard is right. I don't know exact percentages but, if you add all the enthusiast RAM in the world together for any given year, it will probably not equal what Dell alone buys. Enthusiast computing is a tiny percentage of global sales which is a major part of the reason that there is so little IC allocation for "us". OEM dwarfs what "we" buy and they are the priority of the major memory fabs.Otter said:More likely Corsair, Kingston, Mushkin, OCZ and the like.
