Anyone else notice this page on Micron's site https://www.micron.com/products/dram/ddr5-sdram
also if you look at one of their blog posts, they say "As CPU core counts continue to increase, bandwidth per core cannot continue to scale with DDR4. New memory architectures are required to meet next-generation bandwidth per core requirements in x86 CPUs. Enter DDR5."
just thought was kind of interesting. personally i always thought ddr4 was gonna kind of suck. i mean if we look into the past. it's the odd numbered DDR's that are the game changers. well sort of. like how ddr2 had over double the latency of ddr and I don't think there was a single stick of ddr2 that could run at 1T. i'm pretty sure you had to hit at least 800MHz with low latency DDR2 to beat DDR400 but when it first came out they were pushing DDR2 400/533 like it was the next big thing.
