fastest memory ever (10Ghz!!!) in one 32 gig stick
- Thread starter MadMike
- Start date
I was hoping to get some more wild replies... it was a joke
this is an old cleron system that i now use as a smoothwal box (firewall)
its processor runs is 66fsb X 7
and that was way before ddr2 or even ddr
it has two 128mb sticks of old 100mhz sdram running with the bus at 66mhz
although this is a joke the picture really is how cpuid reported it
i have no idea why it read it the way it did
when i saw what it said i had to save a shot of it.
i recently came across the pic and i had to post it
btw, does server memory or otherwise really exist which actually has that kind of capacity and/or runs at those speeds??? (other than some mad computer scientist's project)

I don't know about those speeds but that capasity, YES, Google Googles servers that have shed loads of RAM you can get systems with hundreds of GB's of RAM

I'm sure I read somewhere that in 2009 google's servers had only 16GB RAM each (but in 2005 they had an estimated 200,000 of them). Saying that I have seen systems with a lot more than that but that's down to the motherboard having a LOAD of RAM slots, with each slot containing 2-4gig. I personally haven't seen a stick of RAM bigger than 4GB, though there may be as I haven't really been looking.
However...the NASA supercomputers (for example) have unbelieveable amounts of RAM. Here: http://www.nas.nasa....s/columbia.html - 9 terabytes of RAM!!! (NOTE: I think this is actually just a cluster of many; many; many systems).
EDIT
Heres a couple of links:

The NASA cluster is a cluster, as clearly stated.
Nodes Type Speed Cache
1 Altix 4700 (512 cores) Montecito 1.6 GHz 9MB
1 Altix 4700 (2048 cores) Montecito 1.6 GHz 9MB
2 Altix 4700 (1024 cores) Montvale 1.6 GHz 9MB
4 Total Compute Nodes (4,608 Total Cores)
40 Compute node cabinets
Memory
Type - double data rate synchronous dynamic random access memory (DDR SDRAM)
Per Processor (core) - 2GB
Total Memory - 9TB
4GB modules seems to be the largest avalible for now, although I think I've heard from a quiet corner some whisper about 8GB's is coming out not too far away.
