Lost Circuits has an excellent review of the new 533mhz Bus P4. When do I get mine? 
. I hope I get at least half as good at reviewing as these peeps.
We need to give credit to Rambus, though, the serial high-speed technology is very interesting and at or above the same performance level of DDR and had it not been to some business practices of Rambus, they might be a much bigger player in the field than they are now. Bottom line is, first there was PC600 RDRAM, then there was PC800 RDRAM to be topped by the recent addition of PC1066 RDRAM and even PC1200 RDRAM that has been demonstrated successfully in form of engineering samples. Apparently, though, it is still somewhat difficult to procure quantities of PC1066 RDRAM and PC1200 RDRAM sounds more like the results of an overclocker's kitchen than something that will be marketable in the near future.
