You take advantage of the 100% bandwidth availability by running
the screen memory into a 1024 element FIFO.  Then the display can
run faster than the absolute cycle of chip memory would normally
allow, because the display data is cycling into the FIFO during
retrace as well as during the actual display cycle.
