    first 16GB DDR3 UDIMM & SO-DIMM modules

    Hi! Got some updates: The Intelligent Memory 16GB DDR3 unbuffered modules do work on Intel Atom C2000 based systems from Supermicro, Asrock, etc, as well as boards using AMD or other CPUs. Anandtech currently has an Asrock board with 64GB and plans to write a review. In addition, ASUS...

    New BIOS for ASUS X79 board supports 128GB total memory

    Yesterday ASUS released a new BIOS for their X79 platforms which supports 128GB memory. The interesting part about it: This board has 8 sockets and takes unbuffered DIMMs, so each module must be a 16GB unbuffered DIMM, which Intel does normally not support in their memory reference code (the...

    first 16GB DDR3 UDIMM & SO-DIMM modules

    Very strange. The product seems to be fake. Black Diamond itself does not show any UDIMMs larger than 8GB. The part numbers shown in that offer do not seem to exist. And a price of $260 for 32GB of memory is unrealistic cheap as well. Even if it was 4 modules of 8GB the price doesn't fit.

    well, the price will be high. Per my latest information (I work for a distributor) we talk about 5 times the price of 8GB -> around $400 for a 16GB module It might not be a price that makes end users consider to upgrade unless they really need the memory, but compared to manufacturer-memory...

    first 16GB DDR3 UDIMM & SO-DIMM modules

    The modules will be sold over Amazon in a month or so. Also they can be ordered through Asrock and maybe also Supermicro (need to ask if they are ready to take orders already) The Intelligent Memory distributors only sell to dealers/importers who can buy a bit more than just 1-4 modules. The...

    first 16GB DDR3 UDIMM & SO-DIMM modules

    Per my information, the 16GB modules (UDIMM and SO-DIMM) will be priced around $300, maybe $20-30 more with ECC. Is a 32GB RDIMM really at $1200 ?

    first 16GB DDR3 UDIMM & SO-DIMM modules

    Yes and No. The memory controller is part of the CPU -> YES BIOS updates don't work -> NO I love memory ;-) and I am happy about this long thread here. Let me make it a bit longer :) Sorry if this is getting technical now, but I have to explain it: The memory controller is the hardware-part...

    first 16GB DDR3 UDIMM & SO-DIMM modules

    Not I tested, but I'M tested on a number of platforms. Just send them an email and ask your question. They reply fairly quickly. It seems any AMD CPU works with the 16GB modules, but none of the Intels...

    first 16GB DDR3 UDIMM & SO-DIMM modules

    Yes, unfortunately the 16GB DIMMs and SO-DIMMs do not work with most Intel based systems, except for the Atom C2xxx series Avoton. The i3, i5, i7 Sandybridge, Ivybridge, Haswell processors all can take only 8GB UDIMMs or SO-DIMMs, so all the PCs and laptops won't accept 16GB. And it seems...

    first 16GB DDR3 UDIMM & SO-DIMM modules

    seems they are targeting microservers based on Intel Atom C2000 (Codename Avoton) CPUs which can only take DDR3 ECC DIMMs and SO-DIMMs, unbuffered only. ASRock, Supermicro and others also build boards based on those processors. But from what I found on Google the C2000 is going to be used a...

    first 16GB DDR3 UDIMM & SO-DIMM modules

    I just found that the first 16 Gigabyte "unbuffered" DDR3 DIMMs and also SO-DIMMs are now available from I'M Intelligent Memory, website: www.intelligentmemory.com They are made of just 16 pieces of 8 Gigabit DDR3 chips, so the modules are dual-rank and have total 16GByte. Theoretically...
