As recently as June 24, Tom's listed in the "Chipsets for P4" that the SiS648 was due in November 2002, and would support "Dual RDRAM". (Last listed in "Warp Speed with Rambus: Six Boards for PC1066").
Since the July 20 article "DDR400 Kills Rambus: Shooting Star SiS 648 for P4", it's apparent that either SiS changed specs for the 648 or the wrong chipset data was listed to begin with. (No reproach intended here, Tom. I KNOW how easy it is with lots of data, MFGs changing specs, and multiple fingers on the KYBs for both correct info to become out of date, and for typos to get entered then be replicated along for months before found).
I have been waiting for the SiS 648 with Dual RDRAM to see how badly it kicked the i850E, and how it did compared to DDR400, only because it was listed in the "Chipsets for P4." The SiS web site wasn't much help here, but then they list the SiS 648 as only supporting up to DDR333. But changed spec or typo, I don't care.
What I do want to know is: Does SiS have a chipset coming in November that supports Dual RDRAM up to PC1066? (SiS has been doing a better job of providing memory support then Intel) If so, what is the chipset #?
