Samsung Announces High-Density DDR3 Modules

If DDR3 RAM modules did not invade computer specification yet, it should come with the first models based on Centrino 2. Samsung announce a breakthrough in producing 2 Gbits DDR3 chips (256 MB) with a 50 nm engraving process. It represents a 60-fold increase in density (vs. DDR2) while consuming 40% less power than 1 Gbits DDR3 chips. With such new chips, manufacturer will offer 8 to 16 GB DDR3 RAM modules for desktop computer and 4 GB SO-DIMM modules for notebooks. With the ever increasing needs of RAM in recent OS and hardware, adding 8 GB of RAM in a iMac or a MacBook Pro might soon be a good advise and not necessarily expensive.
