Nice find sam. Amd is following intel's footsteps in diversifying. Good for the company and consumers alike.

Interesting use of the name "Radeon" here.

Nice find SAM :D

AMD is taking a good step. I think they should also try to implement some scheme of supplying discounted RAM's with their processors :)

@everyone, thanks. was posted at AT. transferred it here.

@sukesh1090, next most likely is SSD. PSU & monitor? hmmm.
@thetechfreak, buy Llano, get 2Gb stick free. buy Bulldozer, get 4Gb kit free? :grin:
@Cybertonic, check source2 & then check their source. you'll find 3-4 pics of these ram. and this one is already on sale at Japan.

my classmate (an diehard Nvidia fanboy) will go crazy when i show him this news. he'll surely pass some vague comment.

looks like ram chips are made by themselves..... not from Hynix...... good.... but first we need good service.....
BTW, thanx for the news....

funny actually.

They shouldn't have sold Imageon (now Adreno) to Qualcomm. Adreno 220 is better than Tegra 2 actually. :p

Sorry about offtopic discussion. For a while I thought some new player in the Indian Cricket team. Later I found it's in the Technology News Section!

yak

there are talks that this has been done on purpose.. to keep the prices down
APU's need faster memory and are not affected by latency a lot... so this is tailor made for AMD APU's

These better be priced really low, cause gskill snipers are really really chip and has good specs.

Is AMD going to bundle these with their CPUs, particularly the Llanos? ;)

that would be nothing but funny.

Next step, Intel will launch their own version of memory.:twisted:

suitable for llano actually
and I'm sure AMD will do their part on latencies too once they are completed with these modules

I know, something tells me AMD memories will OC even less, like 0 MHz :neutral:

then they better launch it as a part of Puja offer aka free gift :p

this is such a cheezy device with the amd sticker. does the same thing as any other company ram.
