But people at GAF and Beyond3D seems to believe this supports the downclock rumour. quote: Well, 800Mhz x 128 bits = 102 GB/s According to the article the flux capacitor found by MS allows read and write at the same time(intel, hire these guys) and so theorical max bandwidth should be 102 x 2 = 204 But the news say is 194 with take us to a 96GB/s read and 96GB/s write and so to 750MHz x 128 bits. Downgrade or what? /quote |
This is what i read on Eurogamer... which sounds similar... i personally don't understand it:
Doesn't this sound like they are trying to hide a downgrade in an upgrade. Some clever PR before the world catches on?
e.g If the clock was still 800Mhz and it magically became bi-directional wouldn't the the theorical max bandwidth be 204 GB/s?
They claim 192GB/s which split between reading and writing gives us 96 GB/s each way. To make that work the clock would have to be 750Mhz which is a 50Mhz down clock!?
