As recent developments clearly show, almost every memory manufacturer out there is getting ready for the new wave of DDR3-supporting computer systems, which, naturally, only goes to explain the high number of DDR3 memory modules being released on the market. However, DDR2-enabled systems still constitute the majority on the computer market, with most products released from major systems vendors being designed to benefit from the specifications of DDR2 memory.

 

On that note, Walton Chaintech, a world renowned memory module and graphics card manufacturer, has recently announced the Apogee Elite DDR2-800 Fully Buffered DIMM (FB-DIMM) Memory Module.

 

As the official announcement of the company says, the new Apogee Elite memory modules have been designed to meet the requirements of today's Intel servers, Mac Pro workstations and Apple Xserve servers. The release comes to confirm Walton Chaintech’s intentions of entering the enterprise memory market of server, workstations and Mac Pro systems.

 

Aiming at meeting the requirements of today's high-end server and workstation systems, the new Apogee Elite memory modules have been made available in two timing latencies, namely CL-4 and CL-5.

Furthermore, the company has also announced that the new Apogee Elite lineup of DDR2 memory modules will be available in 2GB and 4GB kits, thus offering a reliable solution to most customers out there. In addition to their server and workstations capabilities, these memory modules can also prove a reliable solution for Intel's Skulltrail gaming platform, delivering high performance to those users that require only the best in computer hardware.

 

The company's new FB-DIMM memory modules are controlled by a built-in AMB (Advanced Memory Buffer) IC, a technology that is specifically designed to deliver signals via point to point, and avoid the problem of unparalleled signal arrival, as compared with traditional modules. Unfortunately, no details regarding pricing and availability have been made public so far, so keep an eye on this space for more.
