DDR4?

Is there any news know about when DDR4 is going to be introduced?

Are we close to it, like with the introduction of Ivy Bridge etc...?

Well, I know Samsung has made a few working DDR4 sticks, source: http://www.samsung.com/global/business/semiconductor/newsView.do?news_id=1228

At the moment they are scheduled for market release for 2012, but will be really expensive. So a possible chance IB "might" have DDR4 support, but no one knows yet.

I thought that Ivy Bridge was going to continue with the 1155 socket, so I doubt they'll have DDR4 support, given the on-die memory controller. Unless they do an AMD and have support for both on die?

DDR4 will come into market from 2012 or later 2012 as new motherboards for future will using DDR4 so that long away -- at the moment DDR3 still sell a lots with cheaper prices... I dont know what is the length of pins in DDR4 as I think it wont be same as DDR3 with same notch - find out when it come out...
