Brad Linder — Mon, 09 May 2011 14:14:13 +0000

Most Intel Atom chips on the market today support up to 2GB of memory -- but most netbooks ship with 1GB of RAM, because that's the only way to qualify for a low cost Windows 7 Starter license at the moment. But Fudzilla is reporting that there could be a shakeup in the Atom-based notebook market later this year. According...

How much difference does DDR3 RAM make in netbooks?

Brad Linder — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 16:39:33 +0000

Not much. Netbook makers are starting to ship netbooks with new Intel Atom N455 and N475 processors that support DDR3 memory. They have the same clock speed and other features as earlier Intel Atom processors. The only difference is that they use DDR3 RAM instead of DDR2. But what does that mean in terms of actual performance? Sascha from Netbook...

SD Association unveils faster UHS-I spec for SDHC and SDXC cards

Lee — Thu, 24 Jun 2010 13:15:06 +0000

Wouldn't it be nice if there was some way to tell whether certain USB flash drives or memory cards were faster than others just by looking at them? The SD association (the folks who oversee the specs for SD cards) certainly think so, and they're rolling out a little change to help clear things up. The new UHS-I specification and...

Intel Atom refresh to bring DDR3 memory support

Brad Linder — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 16:43:36 +0000

It looks like Intel's new Pine Trail processors will be getting an update in the third quarter of 2010. But don't expect a major change in speed, power consumption, or overall performance. The only real difference is that the new chips will support DDR3 RAM while the current Intel Atom N450 and N470 chips can only handle DDR2 RAM. Fudzilla...
