TEAMGROUP ha annunciato il prossimo arrivo sul mercato dei moduli di memoria DDR5 in formato U-DIMM per desktop denominati TEAMGROUP ELITE DDR5. In accordo al produttore, questi moduli sono destinati alla commercializzazione in kit da 2x16GB.
I moduli ELITE DDR5 rispettano le specifiche definite da JEDEC per quanto riguarda questa tipologia di memoria centrale: più il dettaglio, queste unità lavorano a 4800MHz con un profilo di timing pari a CL40-40-40-77 in corrispondenza della tensione di polarizzazione pari a 1.1V.
Il boost prestazionale rispetto alle DDR4 può raggiungere in generale il 50% mentre la riduzione della tensione di polarizzazione contribuisce a migliorare l'efficienza energetica.
I nuovi moduli integrano, inoltre, un circuito per la gestione della potenza, o PMIC (Power Management IC), mentre nei sistemi DDR4 il power management è affidato alla logica della motherboard.
I moduli TEAMGROUP ELITE U-DIMM DDR5 saranno commercializzati tra la fine di giugno e i primi di luglio con un MSRP pari a $399.99, anche se per le prime piattaforme compatibili, rappresentate in questo caso dai processori Intel Core di dodicesima generazione (Alder Lake) e dalle motherboard basate sui chipset Intel 600 Series, bisogna attendere almeno fino alla fine del 2021.
Press Release
At the end of 2020, TEAMGROUP reached a cooperation agreement with top DRAM wafer manufacturers and started working on DDR5 technology. Since then, TEAMGROUP has dedicated to the research and development of DDR5 modules, collaborating with various major motherboard manufacturers to ensure that each R&D stage undergoes comprehensive testing and to deliver products of the highest quality that the industry has ever seen. TEAMGROUP is leading the industry today as we announce our official launch of the world's first DDR5 memory module for desktops, the TEAMGROUP ELITE U-DIMM DDR5, which is estimated to be available on major EC platforms for consumers worldwide by the end of June and the beginning of July.
The initial launch of TEAMGROUP ELITE DDR5 memory module will support 16GBx2 of capacity at a frequency of 4800MHz, with a voltage of 1.1V CL40-40-40-77, which complies with the standard specifications defined by the JEDEC association. Compared to the maximum 3200MHz standard frequency in the DDR4 generation, the DDR5 is able to increase the speed to up to 50%. The low 1.1V voltage is also more energy efficient than its previous generation; to ensure minimum noise interference for the memory module, the power management is transferred from the motherboard onto the memory with an additional power management IC (PMIC) for more effective system load control. The most incredible feature of ELITE DDR5 is doubling the 16 banks of DDR4 to those of 32 in DDR5 to improve the IC structure, providing double access availability. An on-die ECC (error correction code) included in the DRAM IC is also available for self-recovery of the DRAM unit, ensuring that DRAM systems with DDR5 can obtain higher levels of stability.
The memory module is applicable for Intel 600 series motherboards with DDR5 compatibility. TEAMGROUP's DDR5 will be available globally at the end of June and the initial product launch will be hitting the shelves at Amazon US, Newegg, Amazon Japan, and various major EC platforms in Europe. Gamers, get ready for the first taste of the next generation and embrace the glory of the new DDR5 era with TEAMGROUP.
