admin — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 05:35:53 +0000

Mushkin Enhanced, a producer of special memories in the realization of solutions for High Performance Computing applications, announced the availability of new modules DDR3 XP3-15000.

This is explicitly addressed memory for use with the new Intel x58 platforms - Core i7 and able to operate at a frequency of 933MHz (equivalent to 1866 mega transfer per second) and lateens of 8-9-8-24 at a voltage of 1.65 volts.

Brian Flood, director product development at Mushkin, said: “In line with our tradition of innovation in the market for high-performance memory, the new modules XP3-15000 lead triple channel kits for Core i7 to a new and higher standard. The passionate users and gamers will appreciate the flexibility and stability of these new products during over clocking. “

The memory modules XP3-15000 is already available in triple-channel kit from 3GB and 6GB total. Mushkin ensure that each module is subjected to a test phase with settings operating beyond the specifications. The 3GB kits are offered at a list price of 215 dollars, while the 6GB kits are sold at a price of 338 dollars.

New DDR3 4Gbit chips from Samsung

Samsung Electronics has announced that it has completed the development of the first DDR3 DRAM chip to 4 gigabits, produced using the manufacturing process to 50 nanometers. This is an important, especially in optical data, since this type of chip can make memory modules for high-capacity, while enabling us to contain the energy.

Kevin Lee, vice president of technical marketing for Samsung Semiconductor, said: “We leverage our innovative strength to develop the first chip to 4 gigabit DDR3. With this solution, and thanks to the technology at 50 nanometers allow the sector to engage in significant savings server and the computer market in general. ”

The DDR3 from 4Gbit chips are capable of operating at a voltage of 1.35 volts and are characterized by a speed of 1.6 gigabits per second. Taking a reference to a 16GB module is obtained, with the new chip, a saving of energy in about 40% compared to modules made with 2Gbit chips.

The DDR3 memory chips from 4 gigabit can be used for the construction of RDIMM modules from 16GB per server systems, modules unbuffered DIMMs 8GB workstation and PC systems, or even in traditional forms from 8GB SODIMM for notebook systems. Also using the technology of dual-die packaging can be achieved even modules totaling up to 32GB, in fact offering solutions with twice the capacity than the memory modules made with 2-gigabit chip.

Samsung has not yet notified the period for which is expected to start production in volumes of the new chip and, consequently, the memory modules.

Obviously intended users more passionate and certainly not for the general public, Thermalright has a heat sink designed for use on common forms of RAM PC desktop. Referred to as HR-07, the new radiator is composed of a pair of heat-pipe to move the heat from the sheet into contact with memory chip to an area by a laminated surface, designed to dissipate much faster heat.

And in the case of 4 modules installed? Well, the kit can be purchased with radiators positioned to two different heights in order to be able to mount four in the space typically used by small memory modules RAM.

Available in pairs under the symbol HR-07 Duo, this particular accessory kit will be sold at the price we are about 30 Euro.
