Dave and Marty, i do know what double and triple buffering is about.
What i do not understand is how that would possibly solve the memory bandwidth problem, if you have a constant supply of information, running at an undetermined speed, supplying the memory with more constants that it can handle, outputing it to frambuffer and rendering it at maximum speed. With constant flow, this would mean that the output from the memory would be maximized by memory throughput, but this is not the case, as the chip itself is requesting data at higher speeds than what can be supplied it will be requesting blanks for some instances, and that is the problem.
uh oh, now i have probably said too much.
