DDR2 memory, for instance, first appeared in 2004. But only in the last 12 months has DDR3 taken over as the mainstream memory type for most new PCs. If you factor in existing systems, ...

DDR2 RAM chips are usually 240-pin Dual Inline Memory Modules. These modules are physically very different to DDR DIMMs, which usually use a 184-pin connector.

I'm looking at DDR2 RAM for my motherboard (Asus P5Q-E) and I see all sorts of voltages and voltage ranges advertised.It looks like JEDEC standard is 1.8v, but I was curious about the memory ...

In the meantime, would it be possible/advisable to use my old DDR2 800 RAM (4GB) until my shiny new DDR3 shows up? Both are 240 pin, but I wasn't sure if DDR3 slots were backward compatible w/ DDR2.

DDR2 is still the mainstream memory of choice, only the Intel X38 and P35 chipsets so far support DDR3. AMD is planning on moving to DDR3 when AM3 socket finally makes its debut, ...

Over the past 25 years we have seen the transition from sdram (Synchronous Dynamic RAM) to ddr (Double Data Rate) SDRAM, and then to DDR2, DDR3 and DDR4 on a cadence of five year cycles. Currently we ...

First on the chopping block is the Geil PC2-9260 (or 1160MHz) DDR2 memory module kit. Geil sent us a 2GB kit that contained 2x1GB modules rated to run at 4-4-4-12 at their maximum 1160MHz with a ...

While it still has higher latencies than DDR memory, the PQI24200 comes with very aggressive timings for the DDR2 line. So, let's take a look and see what PQI brings to us this time around.

Without any more time wasting, let's go and find out what these OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400 ATI CrossFire memory modules can do, and if they are in fact any different to existing DDR2-800 modules. If you ...

DDR2 memory will also be used in servers to help boost performance. DDR2 memory improves the signal quality of data transmissions traveling within a PC, said Dean McCarron, ...
