The LRDIMM Files brings you...

LRDIMM Info Revealed
Load reduced DIMMs (LRDIMMs) are a new class of memory modules. Designed with a memory buffer chip to replace the register to help minimize loading, LRDIMMs increase server memory capacity by 3x at higher speeds for HPC, virtualization and in-memory database applications.

Managing Memory Bandwidth

By Sameer Kuppahalli on 09-13-2011 at 3:43 PM

IDC just completed an Executive Brief that we have been working with them on, titled, “Managing Memory Bandwidth Scaling Challenges with LRDIMM and Memory Buffering.” This Executive Brief examines the critical role of the memory buffer in reducing the loading on the data signals and populating more ranks of physical memory on a server system. The result is a Load Reduced DIMM (LRDIMM) powered by a memory buffer that delivers significantly higher memory capacity and bandwidth. Check it out and let me know what you think!

Just a reminder that if you are attending IDF this year to come see us and other industry leaders present on the LRDIMM Hot Topic session on Wed Sept 14 at 4:25 pm in room 2006. And don’t forget to stop by our booth #717 and see our demo that showcases the benefits of 32GB LRDIMM to a memory and compute intensive application in a virtual environment.
