Micron has unveiled 256GB MCRDIMM memory modules designed for next-generation servers at the Nvidia GPU Technology Conference (GTC), reports TomsHardware. These modules offer a significantly higher capacity and performance boost and are ideal for applications such as AI and big data that need to process large amounts of data efficiently. The new [...]
Micron or SK hynix? Each claims to be the first, as SK hynix has announced that it has gone into series production of its own HBM3E memory and will soon be launching it on the market. This is the latest AI memory product with expected ultra-high performance, which will be delivered to customers later this month. The company announced the [...]
Micron Technology recently announced that it has started mass production of its High Bandwidth Memory 3E (HBM3E). Micron’s 24 GB 8H HBM3E will become a component of the NVIDIA H200 Tensor Core GPUs. The NVIDIA H200 series with Micron’s HBM3E is scheduled to ship in the second quarter. According to Micron, this HBM3e memory will consume [...]
A test is always particularly exciting when you come across unexpected problems for which the test subject is not actually responsible. This was also the case here. A RAM test, even if it’s a rather high-priced kit, now runs according to the same pattern for me and isn’t witchcraft. But this time I found myself trapped in an almost [...]
CAMM is a new memory standard that makes conventional DRAM modules smaller, more compact and enables higher capacities. The second generation LPCAMM2 has already been introduced for notebooks and thin/light PC designs. The LP in CAMM standard stands for low energy consumption, based on the LPDDR5 or LPDDR5X standards with speeds of up to 9.6 Gbps [...]
AMD has unveiled the Ryzen 8000G “Hawk Point” AM5 desktop APUs at CES 2024, combining Zen 4 CPU and RDNA 3 GPU cores. These chips are equipped with the latest Ryzen AI “XDNA” NPUs (8700G & 8600G) and are aimed at a budget or mainstream audience who want to play casual or AAA games without having to upgrade a discrete [...]
So anyone who really believes that everything used to be cheaper is very much mistaken. Just compare salaries and prices! Computers are a luxury good. And gold-plated accessories are as old as the PC price list. But who am I telling? If you browse through yesterday’s advertisements today, it can make you feel really sick. But just before [...]
CAMM (Compression Attached Memory Module) is a memory standard specially developed for laptops and portable platforms to offer maximum performance with minimum space requirements. It was originally designed by Dell and introduced during CES 2022. It was later made an open standard and adopted by JEDEC as the latest storage standard. CAMM enables [...]
The NAS article actually planned for today has to wait until next week, the delivery delays for certain components has unfortunately (once again) put a spoke in my wheel. But at least a nice workaround fell in front of my feet, with which you can also beat Amazon a bargain with your own stock. Sure, the whole thing is no big deal, but with a [...]
The first gaming benchmarks of AMD Ryzen 7000 CPUs with the latest AM5 BIOS, which is supposed to improve memory performance and support, have been published by Quasarzone and the results are not necessarily convincing. The latest AM5 BIOS is said to improve DDR5 memory support and overclocking of the Ryzen 7000 CPUs, but gaming performance [...]
Once again, enthusiast overclockers have taken DDR5 memory to a new level of performance. Using LN2 on Intel’s Z790 platform, DDR5 memory achieved impressive overclocking speeds of 11202 Mbps. The current record was set by American overclocker SEBY9123, who used a single Trident Z5 RGB DIMM from G.Skill to beat the previous record set by [...]
Tests of working memory kits are actually relatively predictable if you already know beforehand which memory components are installed and how they are known to behave. It is all the more interesting when new ICs come onto the market and no one really knows what to expect. This is exactly what today’s test is about, because we take a closer [...]
First of all, I owe an apology to G.Skill, since the test sample was already sent to us last year, but the review is now online a few months later. The reason for this is that until recently we revised our test methodology for RAM kits in order to be able to test better and faster. However, the waiting time also benefits the Trident Z5’s [...]
Every day is a groundhog… er, Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB DDR5 kit day, of course. We have already presented the exterior of Corsair’s high-end RAM modules a fair few times, but, as with so many things, it is mainly the inner values that matter. I can therefore already tell you that today’s test subject relies on SK Hynix 16 [...]
Why there haven’t been any RAM tests from me/us for a while, why we won’t have any gaming benchmarks in our RAM tests and how we want to test RAM kits for their real differences in the future, you’ll learn in the following piece. In addition, this should serve as a basic article, which will be linked accordingly in upcoming [...]
Although my topic has been preached by the old hands in the PC field in forums for decades and is often the approach of any solution to performance problems, the same questions keep popping up from less experienced users. I hope to reach them with this article on our professional platform and maybe there is one or the other info for everyone else [...]
JEDEC has started work on a suitable replacement for the SO-DIMM memory standard in the form of CAMM for laptops, which in turn has already been introduced by Dell. Because last year at CES (2022), Dell introduced a brand new storage technology called CAMM. also known by the full name Compression Attached Memory Module, the new standard was [...]
AMD’s new Ryzen 7000 desktop CPUs, based on the Zen4 micro-architecture, still use the same chiplet design as their predecessors, with a few small but not negligible changes. Igor already gave details about this in yesterday’s big review. Today we want to look at how to configure the new CPUs as optimally as possible and for this we [...]
With DDR5-6600 CL32, the kit from today’s review is not only the fastest RAM kit in Corsair’s portfolio but even market-wide in Europe, at least at this point. The exterior is the familiar Dominator Platinum RGB design, which we had even looked at 2 times before in tests. Accordingly, we will focus especially on the inner values of the [...]
