How far back in time must one go to find main memory tech that would be immune to this? (eg. SRAM, magnetic core, vacuum tubes?)

- mdrzn 5y agoSomewhere they mention that even just DDR3 is immune from this, because the chip is not "crammed" enough to be susceptible to this attack.
- egberts1 5y agoBecause it is about the capacitance banks in the memory chips. It’s cheaper to buy a dual Xeon 5660 (six CPU times two chipset times two for SMT) and ply it with 244GB of DDR3-1600 to get an overclocked 4.4Ghz than it is to buy anything DDR4.
- josteink 5y agoDDR3 supposedly. It’s not packed as densely.
