The ECS will support AMD Motherboards Memory Profile

ECS has announced to be the first manufacturer to implement on their motherboards support technology AMD Memory Profile (AMP). This new feature designed by AMD, which is reminiscent of the XMP from Intel, will optimize the performance, compatibility and efficiency of DDR3 platforms for the next generation. The 'company has worked closely with AMD and, according to earlier statements, will provide users with outstanding performance and ability to operate at very high frequencies limiting consumption.

The first to benefit from the AMP board is ECS ' A85F2-A Deluxe , then follow this new model, which surely will come with DDR3 memory kits optimized for the new technology. We think that with the new FX series processors (8300) we will see the first high-end solutions with frequencies that can compete with Intel Ivy Bridge.

Watching those first screenshot BIOS can not confirm the similarity between the AMP and XMP technology, when you enable the feature loads a default profile that, according to the model, automatically sets frequency, voltage and timing.

Samsung announces first 16GB DDR4 Memory Module for Server Systems

Through a press release, Samsung officially announced the first module of DDR4 memory intended for high density server systems. We speak of course of a RDIMM module, assembled with chips built with 30 nanometer manufacturing process and a maximum capacity of 16 GB .

 

Wanhoon Hong , Executive Vice President of Memory Division, Samsung, said:

"With the launch of these new high density modules DDR4, Samsung supports the development of the next generation of IT Systems High Performance Green. Simultaneously with the launch of new memories for Server Systems, the company works to the introduction of new products with chips to 20 nanometers. "

 

DDR4 modules will be available in 8GB and cuts will reduce energy consumption by about 40% compared to the "old" DDR3. The voltage I / O it goes from 1.35 to 1.20 volts and within a year, says the company always, we will also increase the operating frequencies up to nearly double the current 1600 MHz base frequency of the DDR3.

Corsair Dominator Platinum: DDR3 Memory clocked at 3000 MHz

Corsair Dominator should update its proposal short of Memories RAM for high performance with a new model series DDR3 Dominator, in particular it seems that the company has on site a version of Platinum at a frequency of 3000 MHz , and dual and quad channel availability. The RAM is dedicated to overclocking enthusiasts and more technology will support Corsair Link that lets you monitor the status of memories.

 

The Corsair Dominator Platinum present a PCB with copper thermal pad and a system DHX (Dual-path) with aluminum fins to dissipate the heat produced. Above the heatsink Finally, there is provided a coating customizable and a bar of polished aluminum.

 

The Corsair Dominator memory Platinum will be available in capacities of 4 GB, compatible with both Intel and AMD systems, but prices have not yet been officially disclosed.  By

Samsung launches first mobile LPDDR2 memory of 4 Gb density standards for the 20-nanometer class

According to the company Samsung Electronics, it was the first in the industry began to produce components such as memory density LPDDR2 4Gb on 20-nanometer technology class. The manufacturer does not result in the exact value of technological standards, explaining that the 20-nanometer process technologies related to the class, based on compliance from 20 to 29 nm. Serial production of the memory for mobile devices began in April.

 

The Samsung expects that the new memory to quickly replace the memory chips LPDDR2 1GB, now produced at rates of 30 nm-class.

Using the components of the density of 4 Gbps, Samsung can produce 2 GB chip with a thickness not exceeding 0.8 mm. Such a chip would be about 20% thinner than 2 GB chip, made of four crystal density LPDDR2 4Gb, made at rates of 30 nm-class, according to the manufacturer. The maximum speed of the new memory is 1066 Mb / s. Moreover, its energy is equal to power consumption of memory 2GB, made at rates 30-nanometer class.

The Galaxy S III will have 2 GB of RAM, but only in Japan

Samsung has not impressed enough from a technical standpoint with the presentation of the Galaxy S III? Would you have liked more hardware? If both answers are affirmative, there are good chances that you are not Japanese, at least if it was a greater amount of RAM that to which you were interested.

 

We have already seen that there is no single version of the flagship Samsung, as in America will be marketed with chip dual-core Snapdragon S4 and support networks to LTE , but the rest of its technical features will still be in line with the international version .

A little 'different, the situation for Japan, where the operator NTT DoCoMo confirms that the model he distributed, codenamed SC-06D, will always be based on Qualcomm processor, but will also have 2 GB of RAM.

Envy aside, this would be the perfect opportunity to test the real benefits of increased RAM, the model by comparing American and Japanese, virtually identical in all respects except that the amount memory. Unfortunately, we doubt they can achieve such a first-person head to head, but we will the results if someone will try it.

Intel Haswell-EX and DDR4 RAM in 2014

In 2014 the market will see the debut of the new server platform, Intel Hasweel-EX , a solution that provides up to 16 processor cores and DDR4 RAM. As for the consumer market, however, DDR4 memories will come a year later with the debut of 22-nanometer processors Hasweel, CPU and replaces the upcoming Ivy Bridge. In the future a bit 'farther see Broadwell from 14 nm processors compatible with socket LGA 1150 (as Hasweel and the rest).

But to see a spreading "capillary" Memoirs of DDR4 we should probably wait until 2015 with 14-nanometer processors Skylake. But what difference there is between DDR3 and DDR4?DDR4 memories consume much less, from 1.5 V to 1.2 V for DDR3 Furthermore, the present DDR4 greater protection and better error recovery.

Another record for AMD Bulldozer: DDR3 memory overclocked to 3311 MHz

Leading positions Zambezi processors with incredible ease taken in the discipline of CPU-Z, thus wresting the leadership from making Intel. Overclockers opened another discipline in which the Bulldozer can podsidet competitor - «Memory Clock DDR3». The name speaks for itself: to the maximum overclock of DDR3 memory and register the result obtained on the site Hwbot.org. For a long time in this discipline was dominated by the LGA 1156 platform with a processor-based architecture Lynnfield. The maximum result was obtained with the use of frozen storage and Kingston HyperX 1646 MHz was good.

Socket AM3 + platform has registered in the first place «Memory Clock DDR3» overclocker efforts _mat_ , who managed to overclock the memory ADATA Gaming 2.0 Hynix chips to the frequency of 1655.6 MHz (DDR3-3311).

The test stand consisted of a motherboard Asus Crosshair V Formula, and processor FX-8150. Extremely only cooled CPU, memory and fall to a "nitrogen breathing."

Bulldozer processors place prize in the two disciplines of overclocking is very good, but it does not improve their quality of consumer. I'd like to believe that the AMD FX chips will not play the role of a wedding sort of general who invited "on stage" only in exceptional cases.
