my understanding was one goal of this would be replacing DRAM with 3D XPOINT so theoretically your computer would have 1 TB of this new memory in its RAM slots.

- valarauca1 10y agoYour understanding if a bit flawed, and largely based on marketting. Intel has hinted XPOINT will be usable in DRAM slots, but has yet to announce a product. Intel has stated XPOINT will replace DRAM buuut based on it's marketing material it won't. Having latencies go from 14nano-seconds to 9000nano-seconds isn't acceptable for a DRAM replacement.
- Moral_ 10y agoA lot of the 9000 latency you're speaking about is traversing the PCI bus. The Dimms should be lower latency.
