Samsung ramps up DDR3 RAM production

Looks like Samsung’s semiconductor division is in for some good time as they have announced to ramp up production of DDR3 RAMs. The sudden surge in the production is to support demand for Intel’s Xeon powered 5500 series servers which when equipped with DDR3 memory “improves the efficiency of data transactions in virtually any enterprise server application.”

Samsung’s 50nm DDR3 chips enable OEMs to design servers that can hold up to 192GB of RAM and when pitted against its predecessor, DDR2, it doubles up the performance while improves up to 60 percent in power consumption.

Samsung DDR3 chips are available at speeds of 800 megabit per second (Mbps), 1066 Mbps and 1333 Mbps and can offer up to a 40 percent power savings at 1333Mbps, compared to 60nm DDR3 chips.
