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.

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

 

[SlashDK]

Is this for real or an elaborate hoax? :O I still can't believe it even though its on anandtech. BTW nice find Sam.

@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?
@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....

This has "Made-for-India" written all over it

Now AMD in RAM category...competition will be tougher now...benefit for buyers

 

[skeletor]

funny actually.

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

1600 mhz for cl11?
yak

 

[ajayritik]

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!

Disgusting latencies, looks like something to sell in India.

 

[skeletor]

Pentium 4 of the memories. I like it.

 

[sumonpathak]

moi wants a review sample so i can thrash it

 

[Skud]

Interesting thing is these are 1.5v modules, made for SNB, eh?

 

[ssk_the_gr8]

1600 mhz for cl11?
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?
