8GB DIMMs are Here

Maybe this could help Crysis play smoother?

8GB

Ultimately, MetaRAM looks like a solid replacement for FB-DIMM. Sure, you’re stuck with DDR2’s bandwidth, but as a consolation prize you get a ton of extra capacity with the same power envelope and interface as regular DDR2 SDRAM. It’s likely that a serial, packet-based memory protocol (a la RDRAM or FB-DIMM) is still in our future, but MetaRAM looks poised to tide us over nicely until that future arrives.

I think I could deal with DDR2 bandwidth with this kind of capacity.
