“The socket AM2 Athlon64 processor platform should go a long way to stimulating the DDR-2 memory industry, because key to the AM2’s survival will be access to low latency DDR-2 parts. Up until now that’s been something of an oxymoron… companies like Corsair, Patriot Memory, OCZ, and Buffalo Technology have already begun releasing quick low latency DDR-2, much of it currently based on Micron Rev.E DRAM.”Here are some more Processor articles from around the web:
