- musicale 1y agoTheir prediction about rambus hasn't aged well, but the technical advantages vs. SDRAM of the time are still interesting: https://www.hardwarecentral.com/sdram-vs-rdram-facts-and-fantasy/ https://www.hardwarecentral.com/sdram-vs-rdram-facts-and-fan... Surprisingly enough the N64 used RDRAM (and supported a memory upgrade, lowering the cost of the console at launch but enabling an upgrade path for games that needed more memory.)
