DDR3 Will Be No More in 2012 !
Well we haven’t even reached the mainstream of DDR3 RAM (at least in south asian countries) & here comes a shocker to hit the world of hardware. Xtreview Reported that DDR3 will be inferior to the DDR4 in the upcoming years & we can see a higher frequency DDR3 RAM with comparatively Lower Voltage ratings by the year 2012. i.e they will shift the voltage from 1.5 to 1.25v.
Here’s what qimonda is planning to do in the future shift from DDR3-DDR4.
so as per their plan it seems like we might see DDR4 2133Mhz Module in early 2012 which will go up to whopping 2667Mhz by the year 2013.

Intel talks about Larrabee
Whenever anybody talk about graphics cards only 2 names are recalled i.e. ATi & Nvidia. Not only dedicated GPU’s Ati & nvidia are dominating the IGP market . Though intel has also being a part of the IGP market for many years now. They never tried their hands in the dedicated GPU section.
Intel now seems to be getting into the grove of dedicated GPU codenamed Larrabee. They have started to shread some details about their new GPU in the market. The cores will much like to be based on the existing CPU’s architecture It’ll be using the unusual x86 instructions which is quite a unique thing about this GPU.Many features like preemptive multitasking , page & virtual memory swapping & with support for open CL & DirectX are supported so its all win situation for latest gamers & surely this one will give the giants a run for their money.

Nvidia On a Down Fall
Everything seems to be going fine for nvidia , With their successful 8XXX series graphics cards selling pretty well. Main reason behind that was good pricing ,But it was not for too long. IT has been found that Nvidia’s Latest offerings for laptop Graphics reported to be having some major problems of heating & with the tough competition from AMD’s Puma platform they have to look into this pretty quickly,because most probably in Q4 2008 they will be facing the music against the AMD’s (R700) based graphics card (R700) which will soon be releasing ,which will be a run for a money for the GTX280’s. To add to that AMD/ATi is also not stopping their strategies by selling their topmost cards like 4850 for peanuts.
This will surely bring down the sales pf the high end graphics cards, i hope Nvidia will cope up with it & hopefully will be back with a bang.
