Samsung Adds 32 GB UDIMMs to Memory Lineup

AnandTech:

Samsung has quietly added 32 GB unbuffered DDR4 memory modules to its lineup of products. The UDIMMs are based on the company’s 16 Gb chips, which were introduced earlier this year that are already used for 32 GB SO-DIMMs as well as 64 GB RDIMMs.

Samsung’s 32 GB UDIMM is rated to operate at DDR4-2666 date rates at the DDR4 standard voltage of 1.2 V. Samsung does not disclose timings, but since the company sells its own memory modules mainly to large PC OEMs, it is highly likely that the 32 GB UDIMM uses the standard JEDEC latencies for DDR4-2666 (i.e., CL17 17-17 or higher).

[...] modules that use these DRAMs are more energy efficient than DIMMs of the same capacity that rely on a larger number of 8 Gb devices.

    I loved Samsung's magic RAM back in the day.... 4GB sticks for $20. No fancy heat spreaders or LED lighting, they just worked great and were cheap.

    So that was many years ago. I'm sure these new 32GB sticks are probably just as cheap these days, right guys? $20 is a good price point for 32GB of RAM to have fallen to after a decade, right?

      They have made some progress:

      The current TI-Nspire calculators are now running the OS version 4.5.0.1180, released in September 2017. The operating system has been updated frequently since 2007 (partly due to bugs and missing functions, and also to patch jailbreak exploits), one year after its release in 2006. Version 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0 were major upgrades that added many features.

        Your point is well taken. Value important no, removing "owner's*" ability to root very important.

        -----
        * If somebody else has root and you don't, you're not the owner, whatever your receipt may say. Possession is nine tenths and all that, and they possess root (control) of the device; you don't.

      The price of TI calculators will never come down because of how they've been allowed to be integrated into maths teaching in the US.

      Don't have a TI-83? Fuck you, cheater. Automatic zero.
