Doesn't the Deck have quad channel memory?
- sliken 3y agoYes, as does any most DDR5 systems, but they are still 128 bits wide or 4 x 32 bit channels.
- brnt 3y agoAh! I thought 64bit buswidths had been standard in DDR memory for, well, a very long time now? Why did that change? Sounds like nothing much changed actually, in terms of total (bus) bandwidth.
- sliken 3y agoYeah, up to DDR4 it's standard, or at least common to have 64 bit channels. But with DDR5 it's standard to have 2 32 bit channels per dimm. Unfortunately many confuse number of dimms with number of channels, which is wrong for DDR5.
