SUMMER IS almost upon us, and in the northern US, that means spring is upon us, along with the traditional onslaught of moles that the warmer weather brings. The moles seem to know a lot about AMD, and this spring is no exception. For such little creatures, they do tend to dispel proportionately more than their share of rumors.
The first thing out of their little lips was memory. While AMD is adamant that the Opterons only support DDR 266/333, DDR 400 will work just fine. The curious bit is why they are reticent about admitting to it. The reasoning behind this is that there are no registered ECC DDR 400 modules commonly available, and it would cause more problems than it is worth to list the memory before it is available. Since the Opteron is a server chip, the more common unregistered DDR 400 isn't suitable for the large memory requirements AMD is touting.
