HUDIMM is being proposed as a cheaper memory spec using only 1x 32-bit subchannel per stick instead of 2x 32-bit in order to populate less ICs. Turns out, halving the bandwidth like that actually slashes the performance in…
40 years ago today IBM was in the news for becoming the first computer company with 1-megabit memory chips.
DDR5 RAM usually has 2x 32-bit subchannels (single rank), which requires more ICs to populate a 64-bit wide bus. ASRock’s new HUDIMM has just 1x 32-bit channel and can work with standard DDR5 in mix-and-matched configs as …
