AMD’s Newest Patent Brings a Gigantic Boost to Memory Performance By a Multi-Chip DRAM Approach; Immensely Benefitting APUs As Well

AMD’s latest DRAM-focused patent effectively doubles memory bandwidth without faster DRAM silicon, but rather through changing the on-module logic. AMD’s Patent Has Managed To Double Memory Bandwidth Without Advancing The DRAM Silicon Hardware-focused upgrades always have limitations since they come with the ‘overhead’ of upgrading architectures or revamping logic/semiconductor utilization. However, with AMD’s new patent, the firm has effectively managed to double DDR5 memory bandwidth output through a relatively more straightforward technique, which the firm labels as ‘high-bandwidth DIMM’ (HB-DIMM). Instead of focusing solely on DRAM process upgrades, the patent has integrated an RCD (register/clock driver) and data-buffer chips to […]
