Integrated memory controller will come in Intel chips not sooner than in 2 years. And it won't be in Netburst. Any current metal layer changes are, obviously, completely unrelated.


I know. We weren't talking about the goals of intel's 8 metal layer change, we already all know, and I specifically already acknowledged in my post, that the change is bin related, as intel already announced. I was using that as an example of a metal layer change for improved bin split goals, as we already know, since intel announced it.

We were talking about what it would take technically (Metal Layer vs. Transistor Layer Changes), to change an already incorporated device such as AMD's on-die memory controller, not whether or not, and/or when intel was, or was not, going to incorporate such a device. And certainly, nobody on this board knows how long it would take for intel to do it, even if they did.

Did you even read the thread? Or was it just the opportunity to bash....... ummmmmm I mean, "respond" to my post specifically that interested you? I bet ya don't even care why I think it would take more..... Do ya. In any case, thanks for "the feedback". I'm not surprised.
