Something like that. Good thread, OP.
DDR5 lookin pretty botnet in that diagram ngl
I will happily be using my 128GB of DDR4 for the next 15 years
Holy shit what a bloat
instead one, reliable PWM (reliable as your mainboard manufacturer) you get one per DIMM during chip shortage
notching directly in the middle of the module already tells you it is an interim standard they only expect to use for about 18 months
All they did is move some Mobo components to the DIMM.
I'm still using 16GB of DDR3
Thats where the RCD goes on registered modules aka not gaymershit
>all they did was add botnet to the RAM
You...you don't know what a botnet actually is, do you?
>notching directly in the middle
It's not actually in the middle, but so close that some retards are going to break their shit trying to plug it in the wrong way and have to buy more. :^)
>I'm still using 16GB of DDR3
me too.
need a better graphics card for the new aaa games though, the 560 doesn't cut it anymore :(
what they should do is eliminate the notch and make the pinout perfectly symmetrical, so that the DIMM works no matter which way around you plug it in.
but that would make things too easy
im glad they pointed out where the PCB is, I'd have been totally lost without this
Now that a single ddr5 stick is dual channel.
Does that mean buying a single stick and potentially upgrading later by buying another stick isn't a meme anymore?
>ddr6 comes out
>notch is as far from the center as ddr4
what's the potential problems from this?
BUT ON THE OTHER SIDE
>Now that a single ddr5 stick is dual channel.
Its not. It is internal quasi 32bit channels. One stick in a DIMM slot still only gives you a 64bit phy which is the same width as channels in prior DDR standards.
You should always have two DIMM slots populated to give full dual channel read and write performance.
alternatively, instead of your mobo shitting itself and tearing apart your entire computer you just replace a DIMM
