Samsung unveils first 32GB DDR3 memory module |
There is a huge push in the enterprise computing and data center markets to move to more energy efficient and green servers. The push is not only because green computing is better for the environment, but also because saving power in the data center can mean huge money savings for companies.
Samsung has announced new RAM modules aimed at green computing in data center that are the world’s first 32GB DDR3 modules. The modules operate at 1.35V and have 20% greater throughput compared to 1.5V DDR3 modules.


Corsair has been one of the top and most popular memory makers in the PC world for a long time. Some of the highest of high-end gaming PC makers use Corsair RAM in their machines. When the Intel Core i7 CPU and X58 chipset combo launched one of the bad parts was that the system required new low voltage RAM.
With the poor global economy making demand for DRAM greatly reduced and many DRAM companies facing the very real prospect of going bankrupt, it may seem surprising that Samsung is announcing a new DRAM chip onto an already flooded market. Yet, it has announced new DRAM with new features.
When Intel first started getting detailed about hardware requirements for its Core i7 CPUs, one of the things that worried some enthusiasts was the low max voltage RAM could be ran at. This meant that new RAM was needed to get the best performance out of the Core i7 and X58 chipset combination.
Hard-core gamers and fans of overclocking like to spend money on quality computer components that can withstand extreme use. Buying cheap CPUs, motherboards, PSUs and RAM won’t cut it for this sort of user.
DDR3 RAM has been around for a while and enthusiast and gamers have been able to take advantage of DDR3 Ram with Intel chipsets for a while. With the 790i Ultra mainboard fans of NVIDIA chipsets could finally take advantage of DDR3. DDR3 RAM runs at speeds that DDR2 can only dream about and DDR3 is getting faster all the time.
