I have a couple questions about rdram.....the 16 bit rim 4200 modules will work with all rdram boards correct?....is it just the 32 bit ones that are only compatible wiht the asus board p4t-533?

who makes the best rdram?...i know of samsung, kingston etc?....I am going to match it up wiht a gigabyte GA-8IHXP...im looking to overclock so everyone tell me your experiences with this board and overclocking this ram ...or would ddr be a better option, since the pe chipsets will overclock to 160ish fsb?....performance not price wise

There is no such thing as 16-bit RIMM4200


It's the naming convention, the 16-bit version of RIMM4200 is called PC1066. Or more correctly, the 32-bit version of PC1066 is called RIMM4200.

PC1066=533MHz 16-bit RDRAM
RIMM4200=533MHz 32-bit RDRAM

Oh, PC1066 would be the correct type for the GA-8IHXP. Samsung makes the best RDRAM right now, be certain you know that you're getting REAL PC1066, not remarked PC-800, and you'll be good to go.
