so there is not that all that much to complain about. CAS latencies of DDR2-667 suck compared to 66 MHz EDO RAM, but that EDO RAM still used 4-1-1-1 timings resulting in an absolute latency that is around 10x worse than DDR2. If you want better latencies...

with low latency(3-3-3-x) to bring out best performance. The major reasons for the transition to DDR-2: DDR-2 consumes less power DDR-2 can be cheaper than DDR-1 Of course, how else will you run those ram at such speed without overcloking your system. And...

But we'll find out when it's released. Remember AMD is far more relient on low latency that low bandwidth (the opposite to netburst). The higher the DDR2 clock rate the lower the latency, so yes Opteron will gain, but will not use the extra bandwidth (unless...

CL: Short for CAS Latency, where CAS is short for Column Address Strobe. CL latency is one of the most important parameters of a memory chip. It is the time it takes to get data to the data pins. Immediately following the CAS Latency, the data is available...

The choice between EQ2 and WOW.. Archived from groups: alt.games.everquest,alt.games.everquest2,alt.games.warcraft () Well, I have both EQ2 and WOW. I am a newbie, basically, who has only been playing both for the last two weeks. I intend to only keep one,...

in gaming. This actually wsn't so much of an issue for Dothan since its large 2MB with very low 10 cycle L2 cache latency helped buffer the FSB latency. The problem with Yonah was that the new shared cache required new algorithms that introduced latency. The...

against DDR. While if we developped DDR more, a DDR533 setup will destroy a DDR2 533 one which costs more. I've yet to understand the point of the higher latency if DDR2 has the same bitwidth. It supposedly improves temperatures by lowering the voltage, and...

have? i've read a lot in the past year and have learned much about how computers work, etc. but benchmarks mean very little to me so long as my machine works well for me. so will i really need pci express, ddr2 ram and a duel core processor in the future...

higher latencies than DDR2, DDR2 has higher latencies than DDR1. This is offset by the higher throughput, as DDR has 2 operations per cycle, DDR2 has 4 operations per cycle and DDR3 has 8 operations per cycle. So DDR3/800 is actually running 100MHz, DDR2/...

IMO, NEEDS to make Yonah soon. Dothan doesn't use all the bandwidth provided by dual-channel DDR2 and doesn't seem to mind the higher latencies of DDR2. Not only that, but the arbiter unit won't have to work as hard due to the lower clocks per core and won't...
