SAMSUNG Introduces First Consumer 30nm-class DDR3 DRAM Modules

By Nathan Kirsch

Samsung today announced the introduction of 30-nanometer-class DDR3 synchronous dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) modules for PC upgrades. This new generation of faster, more energy efficient DRAM modules will be available through consumer retail channels this summer. Samsungs new DDR3 DRAM modules are available in 2 and 4 gigabyte capacities, in very low profile (VLP) unbuffered dual in-line memory module (UDIMM) configurations for desktop PCs, and small outline DIMM (SODIMM) configurations for notebook PCs. Estimated street prices for single pack modules will range from less than $30 to less than $55; dual pack modules will range from less than $55 to less than $110.
