Is that it for DDR then?

[matt100]

Just wondering, now AMD have gone for DDR2 and binned production of s939 chips and Intel finally have a performance chip worth investing in.. is this the end for DDR development?

I appreciate it'll stay in production for a while but in terms of improvements in module size/latency and speed have we reached the end of the road as Conroe storms off into the future of performance computing and everyone looking for speed gets directed towards DDR2?

Yup, pretty much.

Feels like a bit of an end of an era to me.

I can't see any huge advancements coming out for it, but I imagine there will be a few exceptions.

Bye DDR :'(

DDR was getting long in the tooth, with DDR2 hitting well over DDR1000, we can't really compain
