Dual Purpose Memory Causes Confusion

"In short, the GDDR-3 spec defines key changes in the memory's clocking mechanism and I/O scheme so that it is better-suited for point-to-point links to a graphic controller; this approach differs from DRAMs designed to send and receive data over a bus. The first GDDR-3 devices should arrive next May or June, with speeds starting at 500 MHz and throughput of 1Gbits/second per pin. Later versions will scale to 1.4 to 1.6 Gbits/s."

Now they are just making stuff up.
