AMD using DDR500

Up until today, DDR400 has been the official memory standard for majority of the platforms, but Intel made the change to DDR2, and now it’s AMD’s turn to make a change to their platform. According to an insider source, AMD has plans to adopt DDR500 as its official memory standard in the very near future.

Before making the switch to other memory standards, the chipmaker has decided to extend support for DDR even further. The source said AMD would most likely support DDR500 with its Venice core microprocessors.

According to the information we received, AMD was in talks with memory makers to make this idea a reality since last year. In fact, the chipmaker was conversing about supporting low-latency DDR500 modules, as they tend to work best with AMD microprocessors and their onboard memory controller.

The insider said support for 250-memory divider is already available in numerous BIOS files, but it’s a matter of time before motherboard makers enable that feature. Since MSI supplies sample boards to AMD, all of their boards have the up-clock memory ratios that they can enable.

Thus far, that’s the only information we have received. All in all, AMD will continue to support DDR and may even move up to DDR500 as its official memory standard.


Hmmm...Yummy kira2 bisa bandwidth 7000-8000 nih

BO ONG Ah

klo sampe ganti berarti ga bakalan kompatibel dg 939/949/754.........kecuali overclock sendiri

???

trus rumor DDR3nya gimana?

Bukan ganti mobo tapi update bios kan sekarang ddr400= 200mhz , bisa jadi standarnya ddr500 = 250mhz ada fitur seperti ini di bios , asik juga sih sekarang kan banyak memory diatas pc4000 ato pc3200 yang punya potensi oc

yg socket 939 khan HT-nya 1000=200x5 dan di sebagian BIOS bisa di rubah jadi 250x4 yg OC ke bus 250 yg pake memori DDR500 kagak ada masalah

kan sama aja klo sekarang make amd ter-oc sampe 250 dengan memory sync... hanya bedanya tanpa oc dah jalan di clock segitu... ^_^ (klo di oc berarti bisa lebih baik lagi ya?^_^)

Justru ini malah mendukung rumor itu. DDR3 nggak mungkin mature dalam waktu dekat, so, selagi AMD tungguin DDR3 mature, dia akan keluarin official DDR500.

Lagian, kalo memang ganti, dia tetep pake 939/940/754 kan? kan pincount-nya sama, dan slotnya sama. Nggak perlu ganti lah.
