| Micron Technology Increases DDR2 Memory Performance Micron Technology has announced sample availability of the industry's fastest main memory 1 gigabit DDR2 components, capable of running at 1066 megabits per second. Used primarily in data-intensive computing applications, such as video editing or high-end gaming, Micron's new DDR2-1066 memory modules increase user productivity and make images on screen seem more life-like. Micron's DDR2-1066 memory offers an impressive 33 percent speed improvement over DDR2-800, currently the industry's fastest DDR2 speed available. The DDR2-1066 components are produced on Micron's 78-nanometer 6F? process and operate at the JEDEC standard 1.8-volts. The 1 Gb component density allows for modules in densities ranging from 512 megabytes to 2 gigabytes. Micron has already generated industry support of its DDR2-1066 components from leading chipset companies including Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), VIA Technologies and Silicon Integrated Systems. Samples of Micron's 1 Gb DDR2-1066 components are now available for select customers and volume production is expected in the third quarter of 2007. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Computing News :: home page |
