Elpida Develops Industry's Smallest, Most Efficient 30nm Process 2-Gb DDR3 Chip
Elpida Memory, Inc., Japan's leading global supplier of Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM), today announced that it had completed development of a 30nm process 2-gigabit DDR3 SDRAM. The new 2-gigabit DDR3 SDRAM used 30nm-level advanced process migration technology to create the DRAM industry's smallest-level 2-gigabit DDR3 SDRAM. It achieves 45% more chips per wafer compared with Elpida's 40nm process products. Also, the new process design developed by Elpida will help contain rising chip costs associated with process migration. As a result, the 2-gigabit DDR3 is slated to become an extremely cost-competitive product.

Elpida's new chip meets the JEDEC specs for the high-speed DDR3-1866 and 1.35V low-voltage, high-speed DDR3L-1600 memory chips, both expected to become mainstream industry products in 2011. Also, the 30nm DDR3 SDRAM is eco-friendly. As a DDR3 SDRAM it achieves one of the industry's lowest levels of electric current usage (approximately 15% less operating and approximately 10% less standby usage compared with Elpida's 40nm products), which contributes to lower PC and digital consumer electronics power consumption.

I remember the 1st set of DDR3 Ram I bought. G.Skill 2x2GB sticks for my 790i Ultra. Ran me $450!!!!! LOL Hopefully prices are down even more by then. Sure they will be.

hehe I remember that build. It's still one of my favorites too!

Or....... CPU makers find a way to quit making weak sauce IMC's so you can do 7-7-7 @ 2500+ on s1366 and AMD :ohcrap:

that's a bold guess! :taunt:

I hope so... the chips and everything else are advancing, but RAM seems to take backward steps at times.... Hopefully these new hypers do not cost a bagillion dollars...

I'm just ready for anything new. New CPU, new RAM, new mobo, hell anything as long as it is new and different.

elpida is like intel of ddrs...........the new 30nm fab will at least make it cheaper..but you do pay for technology....
