Gigabyte i-ram box--fiction?

[Sunayknits]

But us i-RAM users will have faster streaming data, faster absolute access times and (likely) longer longevity, even if we don't have huge capacity (we just prioritize it where it counts, on the OS). That seems like better in "most aspects" that matter to me.

It is very easy to surpass iRam performance right now by using 2 SSDs in RAID 0 on a decent controller, not to mention much more cost effective and far less of a hassle. In 6 months, a single SSD will likely provide double the bandwidth of a single iRam. Access times for the iRam are indeed faster, but this is not something you will ever notice in real life.

Furthermore, you don't have to worry about that big Li-on battery inside the iRam overheating, bulging, and eventually bursting (perhaps in flames) over time , or listen to the annoyingly loud squirrel-cage fan running at a zillion RPM inside just to keep the unit cool

Also, the larger size allows you to install all your apps and games on ultra-fast storage too. This makes a HUGE difference in my experience.

Yes, I have reason to hate the iRam. I wasted several weeks and many dollars on this business which I can't get back so forgive me if I'm a little bitter Frankly I'm surprised that it's taken me this long to post about this absurdity as I've been rather upset about it for some time ...
