Everyone always wants good stable system memory, but not everyone wants to pay the price. When computer enthusiasts build or upgrade a system, RAM purchases are often relegated to the cheapest parts available, saving money at the expense of performance. Benchmark Reviews has tested the 2GB set of Crucial PC2-8500 CL5 Ballistix BL12864AA1065 DDR2 RAM […]
Last last year, Kingston unveiled its then-blazing fast HyperX DDR2 RAM modules, and just as you’re finally paying those couple of 2GB kits off, the same company is apparently planning to up the ante. Reportedly, Kingston is looking to reveal its DDR3 1500MHz HyperX and DDR2 800MHz low latency memory modules at Computex, which should […]
Hynix Semiconductor today announced it has received validation on its DDR3 memory components and modules from Intel. The newly-validated DDR3 products are 1Gb DDR3 SDRAM component manufactured on 80nm process technology, 1GB 2GB DDR3 Unbuffered-DIMMs. These devices have operating speeds of 800MHz and 1066MHz and a 1.5V power supply. These speeds are offered in latency […]
Japanese subsidiary of Buffalo Technology Inc., a leading maker of advanced memory modules and other electronics, has announced the world’s first memory modules based on DDR3 chips. While there are several months to go till the first DDR3-supporting platforms will emerge on the market, Buffalo wants to sell them now, but at a price that […]
Without starting to produce the new generation GDDR4 memory chips, Qimonda, a maker of dynamic random access memory, initiated development of memory test systems for next-generation GDDR5 memory chips. The announcement emphasizes Qimonda’s intention to start manufacturing of GDDR5 as soon as possible. Qimonda AG said it is developing GDDR3 memory test systems with Advantest, […]
There are several DRAM manufacturers that are catering to the enthusiasts right now, and we can say that Geil has now gone the furthest distance. The firm just released Esoteria series of memory modules. They plan to cater to the racing car addicts, because the heat-spreaders feature carbon-fibre. This is not a typo - Vorsteiner, […]
Code-named Alverston, the chip is a phase change memory device. Intel CTO Justin Rattner demonstrated a 128-bit sample of Alverstone at the Intel Developer Forum in Beijing and will start sending samples to customers in the first half of this year. Intel is working on the project with ST Microelectronics. The material is similar to […]
Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. saw operating profits slide during the first three months of this year on weakness in the memory chip market, it said Friday.
The company, which is one of the largest manufacturers of the DRAM (dynamic RAM) chips used in computers and NAND memory chips used in consumer electronics devices, said net profit […]
