How do you expect that to happen? By sharing memory channels you are no longer using a point to point connection and are now prone to reflections in the PCB traces where you have split the signal. There is no "money" that can be put into this, that won't also improve the performance of the single DIMM per channel setup disproportionately.
I don't even understand what your point is. Quad channel support would be a much better idea since it doubles your memory bandwidth, while remaining a point to point connection, but you're going to complain that you can't add eight DIMMs then.
- zrm 3y agoWhat if you give each slot independent command pins but not a complete memory channel? What if you use a similar technology to registered or load-reduced memory, but put the register on the system board instead of the DIMM so it's in front of multiple DIMMs that then share the channel into the processor but not the traces on the system board? This may also allow higher capacity DIMMs in consumer systems.
