Apple iAd advertising platform coming!

Shocked? Not if you've been following Apple closely and know that back in January it had acquire Quattro Wireless, an advertising company. Word on street has it iAd (our nick name) would be a big announcement for Apple. Reports goes on to say that iAd advertising platform would be as important as iPod, iTunes, iPhone, and iPad.


As one can expect from Apple no one knows for sure what it actually is, but if we're to speculate than it could be something based on portable Apple devices (read iPhone, and iPad).

The ad platform might give location based advertisement which would be mutually beneficial to consumers and advertisers.

In fact it would be really good for an iPhone / iPad user who is roaming in say Madison Avenue to know where a good restaurant is or where can he get a good pair of sneakers (all ads paid by advertisers).

Samsung shipping 40nm 32GB memory module for servers

WOW! Samsung is now shipping 32GB memory modules based on 40nm fabrication process! In fact the Korean semiconductor major is the first one in the world to ship 32GB memory module based on 40nm class. Targeted towards servers, the module provide high-density and high-performance features at low-power consumption levels.


The highly-efficient 32GB RDIMM consists of 36 dual-die 40nm-class 4Gb DDR3 chips that can perform at equal or greater levels to a 40nm-based 16GB RDIMM with no increase in power consumption.

By equipping a dual CPU, two-way server with 32GB modules, a server system can have up to 384GB of memory. This allows for doubling the previously largest density of 192GBs per server with a power increase of less than five percent over that needed for a 16GB module-based system.

In addition, replacing 12 DRAM modules of 16GB density with just six 32GB modules would achieve a 192GB total density, while allowing the DRAM operating speed in a two-way server system to rise by 33 percent from 800 megabit per second (Mbps) to 1,066Mbps, as power is cut by 40 percent.

In high-performance, four-way servers using 16GB modules, one terabyte of DRAM would be commonplace. By using 32GB RDIMMs, Samsung is moving toward providing four-way servers with 2TB of DRAM each, a migration that it believes will spur introduction of diverse software and a broader scale of server applications.

Mass production of the 32GB RDIMM is slated to begin next month.

Walton Chaintech intros 2400MHz DDR3 memory

Walton Chaintech today announced a new DDR3 memory series called APOGEE GT DDR3-2400, touted to be one of the fastest in the world. The firm's latest memory clock can reach a memory speed of 2400MHz, providing users with blitzering speed. It further reports that this new clock is the industry's fastest computing clock with a transmission bandwidth of 19,200MB/sec per transmission. No more will users be restricted by memory bandwidth when faced with system overclocking, they will be able to maximize their computing systems' performance and potential.


The all-new APOGEE GT DDR3-2400 memory utilizes a 1.65V voltage and 9-11-9-27 timing operation process.

It also has a unique heat pipe and heat dissipation fins that maintain memory operation stability even if the device is working at full-speed or at higher voltage.
