Validated DDR3 RDIMMs for Intel’s Powerhouse Nehalem Processor
New Intel® Xeon® Processor Architecture Makes the Most of DDR3
Anticipation is building around what Intel’s new Nehalem processor microarchitecture will do for server performance, and rightly so.
With the latest release of Intel® Xeon® 5500 processors (built with Nehalem dual-socket technology), server performance is poised to take a giant leap forward. This performance leap is possible in part because the Nehalem processor integrates the memory controller on-board and can take full advantage of the core benefits of DDR3—providing far greater bandwidth, better signaling, and ultimately, faster access to application-critical information Micron’s Intel-validated DDR3 memory modules are the perfect complement for these new processors. Our suite of validated 1-, 2-, 4-, and 8-gigabyte (GB) DDR3 modules are designed for high performance—delivering blazing fast speeds of up to 1333 Mb/s and greatly increasing server throughput.

Unprecedented Performance – Driving the Transition to DDR3
The advanced performance delivered by Intel’s new Nehalem processors is just one example of how OEMs are already starting the conversion to DDR3. But it’s not just huge bandwidth and turnaround time improvements driving the change. DDR3 offers a wealth of other features—like significantly lower power requirements—that will push wider adoption in the next year.
Key Features of DDR3
- Better peak performance
- Twice the bandwidth and twice the banks of DDR2
- Designed for high-speed signaling
- Improved pinout
- Better module layout
- Lower-power 1.5V supply voltage
