AENEON Launches New High-Speed XTUNE DDR3-1333 Memory Modules

Oct 2, 2007 - Munich, Germany

Munich, Germany, October 2, 2007 – AENEON, a Qimonda AG brand, announced the availability of its new XTUNE™ DDR3-1333 CL8 memory modules. DDR3 is the upcoming memory technology which will be mainly used in high-end desktop platforms. The XTUNE™ DDR3 series is the AENEON solution for these platforms addressing enthusiasts’ highest performance needs as well as enabling fast, stable and reliable system operation.

The XTUNE DDR3-1333 memory module is available with a density of 1GByte (AXH760UD00-13G) and the single module is tested to run at 1333 MHz at a latency timing of 8-8-8-15 at the standard DDR3 voltage value of 1.5 V. The modules can be organized as 128M x 64-bit DDR3-1333 based on 16 components of 64M x 8-bit DDR3 FBGA components. The XTUNE DDR3-1333 memory modules are offered in dual channel kits with two identical modules (2x1GB) tested together in dual channel mode at 1333MHz at a latency timing of 8-8-8-15 on several platforms.

“Our new XTUNE DDR3 memory series in combination with leading edge motherboard and processor technology will leverage the enthusiasts’ performance experience and demonstrate the DDR3 main advantages as one of the first products in the market: offering high-speed computing as well as limiting power consumption due to a reduced memory supply voltage of 1.5 V”, said Dr Carsten Gatzke, Vice President of the Business Unit AENEON at Qimonda.

The 240-pin DIMMs are equipped with gold contacts and a high-quality heat spreader to avoid critical operating temperatures. The XTUNE DDR3-1333 Dual Channel Kit 2x1GB is available now through the authorized AENEON sales representatives and distributors for $400.

AENEON memory modules are developed, manufactured and fully-tested by Qimonda. The current product portfolio offers DDR and DDR2 SO-DIMMs with densities of up to 2 GB for notebooks and unbuffered DIMMs with capacities ranging from 256 MB to 2GB for desktops. With the XTUNE overclocking and DDR3 series AENEON broadens its portfolio to the 3D gaming and enthusiasts’ market. AENEON products are designed to serve the needs of PC system manufacturers, small system integrators and DRAM upgrade resellers. Further information is available at www.aeneon.com
