Super Talent Develops Green DDR3 Memory

By

Super Talent Technology announced late last night that they have developed a new line of green DDR3 modules that use 38% less PCB material and 47% less packaging material than the company’s standard DDR3 DIMMs. The memory modules use less of everything and since they use one-third less copper they might even cost less for consumers. No mention of pricing was in the press release though, so we can only hope that Super Talent passes this savings along to the consumer. The picture below is of the new very low profile DDR3 unbuffered module sitting next to a regular sized DDR3 unbuffered memory module.

“Our goal with these green DDR3 DIMMs is to offer a greener memory choice for regular desktops that uses less raw materials, produces less industrial waste and consumes less fuel to transport with absolutely no tradeoffs in functionality or price”, explained Super Talent Director of Marketing, Joe James. “When multiplied by the hundreds of thousands of memory modules we produce monthly, this can have an enormous environmental impact.” Super Talent’s first green 1066 and 1333 MHz 1GB and 2GB DIMMs will begin shipping in September.
