Detailed memory article over at Anandtech

Something of a refresh on their previous article about what the most important timings are for the new Intel CPU's. Definitely worth reading.

As such, this article should make a very compelling read for those of you interested in learning more about some of the design and engineering that goes into making memory work, and how a little understanding can go a long way when looking for creative ways to improve memory performance…

I read it too, well worth the time and a good read done well. DDR3 did change some of the rules of the game.

I wish they'd do more articles like this.

First i thought is jus one page, more like a comparation article, few technical infos.. But then i realised it has a next link button and many more sections. Indeed it worth reading.
