About DDR2 800:

Quote:

---

Unfortunately DDR2-800 is still extremely expensive compared to DDR2-667, because of extremely poor yields. One source told us that DDR2-800 was yielding far below 50%, resulting in anywhere from a 30% to 100% premium over DDR2-667. Everyone expects the yields on DDR2-800 to increase tremendously later this year, which will help drive DDR2-800 prices down as well as increase the number of low latency or higher bandwidth DDR2-800 parts.

---

Hope this change soon

About DDR3:

Quote:

---

Samsung has been talking to its partners about the move to DDR3; by the end of this year Samsung is supposed to be sampling DDR3 modules, but the memory makers we spoke to believe that the schedule is too aggressive.

---

DDR3 too agressive? no such thing.. the more agressive the better..

and back in the real world...

I expect from all heart that already arrives ddr3:slobber:

Check out the 12 phase on the Gigabyte board...

Did Gigabyte have anything about I-RAM2?

:)

Excellent work Stym. Except pls fall in love with booth personnel in wamps ;) :p:

Foxconn show GeForce 7950 GX2 SLI

"While Foxconn are some months away from selling their own graphics boards, that hasn't stopped them from showing off a few of the models they'll be touting. Top billing goes to their own GeForce 7950 GX2, Foxconn pairing it with another in one of their nForce 590 SLI boards and a Socket AM2 processor, running 3DMark06."

Wow, what a f*cking gimmic :rolleyes:

Well it does have 550W PSU and some average GPU. Quite enough if you ask me :D

PS What`s a gimmick ?

Galaxy show off dual core 7600GT!

"But new for Computex 2006 is the 7600GT Dual Core which, just like its bigger brother, features two 256Mb DDR3 memory arrays, one for each core. Built on a six layer PCB, the 7600GT Dual Core comes in with a peak of 12 pixels per clock, has a 128bit memory interface and a 1.2ns memory speed. "

Sorry for this bing a bit off-topic, but does anyone know what case that is that Corsair is using in their rig that is showing off the Corsair 2GB PC2-10000 CL5? I'm really liking it!

Thanks, but I don't think it's the Lian Li.... this one Corsair is using is open on the left side of it (I think the Lian Li only opens on the right side) and also look at the "partition" that separates the bottom from the upper section... the Lian Li has has a "ramped" section in the front, whereas the one that Corsair uses does not, it's flat.

Thanks,
Brian

It's the closest thing I could find. :)

Best way to find out for sure is to contact someone who was actually there :)
