Anandtech har fået fat i et Asus board med P35 (Bearlake) chipset. Sammen med et sæt DDR2 og DDR3 har de sammensat et par benchmarks så vi kan se hvad man kan forvente sig. Umiddelbart ser det hele meget godt ud, i hvert fald bedre end da man gik fra DDR1 til 2.
Der bliver også givet en grundig gennemgang af DDR3 teknologien og dens fremskridt og forbedringer.
About three years ago DDR2 memory first appeared on the desktop PC scene. It would be impossible to say it burst on the scene since it was introduced with the unimpressive Intel NetBurst processors. In that market DDR2 was more like a trickle since it was mainly a curiosity for a processor that was running a distant second place to the leading AMD Athlon chips, which were still powered by DDR memory.
