JAPANESE MEMORY maker Elpida, which has received bounties from chip giant Intel, has created a technique to speed up DRAM chips, it claims.
According to a report on nikkei.net, Elpida has banged out a DDR-2 512Mbit chip with a read and write speed of 666Mbps.

That's 25 times faster than existing DDR-2 technology, apparently.

According to the report, Elpida is using boron rather than phosphorous as the doping ageny for its silicon chips.


the company expects to introduce the chips towards the end of the year.

They need that for Video cards and system ram !!! hmmm I read an article in this months Maximum PC that said if ram and system bus's get fast enough they can stop putting on die cache's on the CPU's (at least L2 and L3 cache) Hmmm I bet that would make for some cool OC action smile.gif

Edit: Oops forgot to mention the reason they say to drop the L2 and L3 cache's is so that they can run the CPU's faster and be a little cheaper.
