Samsung Begins Mass Production of DDR4 Memory

Samsung is taking the cue from ‘Field of Dreams’: If you build it, they will come. Samsung is beginning to ramp up its production of DDR4 for enterprise servers without clear cut demand for the DDR4 standard.

A successor to the DDR3 (Double Data Rate 3), DDR4 memories are expected to offer higher performance, reliability and lower power consumption than its predecessor.

One good thing about DDR4 is you don't have to match them like you do with DDR3. No more dual kits, tri kits, quad kits. The price will probably be a killer though.

When it comes to mainstream adoption of DDR4, the biggest benefit is likely going to be with integrated graphics. Bumping up the bandwidth for graphics processing will help continue to blur the lines between budget discrete cards and simply sticking with sharing the system memory.

What is “integrated graphics”? The graphics being processed on the MOBO instead of a graphics card?

I want it cheap and in large quantities.

I might start doing facebook if the lags through NSA were short enough.

I thought is was like the intel 4000 on Haswell and the AMD lamp,. trinity, kabini and coming Kaveri processors.

Graphic circuitry on the same silicon as the CPU.

Found this:

Haswell-E to offer DDR4 support, up to eight cores in 2014

On the CPU? Wow!

Same as... AMD APU

Thanks for the information EATB !

Stay safe !
