Optimizing data centers with DDR4 buffer chips

http://www.rambusblog.com/2016/12/21/optimizing-data-centers-with-ddr4-buffer-chips/#new_tab

DDR4 memory delivers up to 1.5x performance improvement over DDR3, running at 2.4Gbps- 3.2 Gbps, while reducing power by 25% on the memory interface. However, the shift to higher speeds degrades electrical signal integrity, especially when multiple modules are added to a system. Consequently, achieving higher capacities at more advanced speeds has become quite challenging.
