GDDR4 (series four of graphics double-density-rate memory) is said to process images 33 percent faster than rival GDDR3 chips on the market. ATI stands to gain the most from this right out the door because their ATI X1900 series was designed from the get go to support GDDR4.
"With GDDR4-based systems, we're entering a new frontier with life-like movements and richly textured imagery far better than DVD movies being viewed today," said Mueez Deen, marketing director for Samsung Semiconductor, based here, in a statement. "Using 80-nanometer production technology, the memory has an ultra-high-speed data processing rate of 2.4Gigabits per second (Gbps)."
