ATI's Eric Demers had this to say about the changes earlier on Beyond3D:



Our new MC (memory controller) has a view of all the requests for all the clients over time. The "longer" the time view, the greater the latency the clients see but the higher the BW is (due to more efficient requests re-ordering). The MC also looks at the DRAM activity and settings, and since it can "look" into the future for all clients, it can be told different algorithms and parameters to help it decide how to best make use of the available BW.
