That configuration could be 3 things. 1.) the bandwidth the OP thinks it has, 2.) shit runs in dual channel mode making it 34GB/s, or 3.) shit runs in quad channel mode making it 68GB/s(unlikely, but wouldn't be a bad idea.) Just knowing how fast a single chip does means absolutely nothing, we need to find out what kind of configuration it's actually running at. |
oh boy o boy oh boy.. Learn how memory is accessed.
For all the others, memory controllers are built 64bit wide. Intel/AMD usually have two in the general CPUs. On GPUs, as a rule, count the number of GDDR chips and divide by two to get the number of memory controllers. The more controllers, the more expensive it gets. Nintendo went the really cheap way on memory, and the brunt of the work is burdened on the GPU, apparently.
