G.SKILL announces an all-new high capacity, low-latency memory kit, Trident Z Neo DDR4-3600 CL16-20-20 256 GB (32GBx8) 1.35 V, for the latest AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3990X processor. Read more
This is insanely good. Just to think. If this platform can be hacked to run Catalina, and use that raw power for content creation? Ryzentosh is already a reality and following that logic, it's just a matter of time.. Alas, Windows or Linux can be ran on this and give astounding performance. Manufacturers will pump even more money into Ryzen and Threadripper platforms.
I remember when PC's had 256MB of system memory. ...Well, not exactly that value, I remember more the 16MB. There was a gap of time during the late 1990's where our PC was good enough to do the things we needed it to so we didn't upgrade it. I guess I more remember when an ATI video card my older bro bought me in the early 2000's had probably 128 or maybe 256MB of memory. Anyways, 256GB is pretty BOSS if you're the 1% that can actually tax a system to that level.
That moment when your RAM is larger than my SSD... Anyway, good job G.Skill ! What a beast of a machine can be built these days, incredible !
I remember my first programming job in a DC office in 1993. I requested my workstation be upgraded to 4MB of ram when everyone else had only 2MB. Everyone was jealous but I needed it to develop in-house apps.
GIMME......GIMME......GIMME...........!.!.! Please someone land a price point/location for these! I was about to buy some at 3200mhz for $1399!!! Microcenter has them meow!
The 3200Mhz Trident Z version of this sells for $1,500 so I would expect these to be around $2K. Honestly if you need 256GB of memory then then even 2K isn't a bad deal as the performance will be like none before at least in these densities. https://www.newegg.com/g-skill-256gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820232966
