16GB DDR3 RAM DIMM o_O

Back from studying for a few hours I found this on the net:

Hynix_16GB_DDR3_RDIMM(Metaram)_01

Proving that MetaRAM technology can work with DDR3 memory too, Hynix is at IDF demonstrating its next-gen R-DIMMs, including 8 and 16GB 2-rank DDR3 modules. Codenamed HMT31GR7AER4C-GC and HMT32GR7AER4C-GD, the fresh 8 and 16GB DIMMs can triple DDR3 memory capacity in servers and workstations and will enable the world’s highest memory capacity per channel.
“As a leader in DRAM technology, Hynix is pleased to be working with MetaRAM and Intel to successfully develop the world’s first 16GB DDR3 module,” said Mr. J.B. Kim, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Hynix Semiconductor. “With this product introduction we expect to see growth in high performance, high density applications.”
Hynix has previously used MetaRAM to manufacture 8GB DDR2 R-DIMMs.

I’m looking forward to times when my mainboard will have 4×16GB Modules instead of the my current 4×1GB DDR2 DIMMs :)

But I fear it will take some time until those DIMMs will be affordable.

    16Gb of RAM with one modul, hmm…^^

    Nice! xD

    But I think the CAS Latencys aren´t the best and so it would be for Server only in the begining^^

    Yeah of course, as usual this things aren’t avilable for mainstream users first.

    16gb holy **** how much would that sob cost right now? even the high-end ‘affordable’ ddr3 are expensive as hell.

    That is on an entirely different level…

    XD I think something like that would need its on individual fan or heat sink….something.
    Though that would be an awesome amount to put in a computer

    Yeah, I guess a Hetpipe like it is used at actual dimms would be enough.

    But I’m not sure if DDR3 will be interesting because Qimonda announced at the IDF that they are going to introduce DDR4 around 2012.

    me para la verga ya que hoy en dia hay boad que teiene hasta 4 puerto de DDR 3
    haci que le pudiese meter 16 GB x 4 slot DDR 3 = 64 GB RAM O_o quedas loco con tanta memoria
    que tal un PC asi

    64GB ram – 8.0 Ghz procesador – 2 Gb video – 2 Tb de H.D.D
    esto seria una mondá [La Verga]
    ¿ tu que harias con un pc asi ?
    R:// yo lo llenaria de juegos la verga y me la pasaria jugando todos los dias de esta PUTA vida
