Hynix HYMP564F72CP8N3-Y5-AB-C 512MB DDR2-667MHz FB-DIMM 1Rx8 Memory

Description

The Hynix HYMP564F72CP8N3-Y5-AB-C is a 512 Megabyte (MB) memory module that utilizes DDR2 Synchronous Dynamic Random-Access Memory (SDRAM) technology. It operates at a clock speed of 667 Megahertz (MHz), providing a significant boost in data transfer rates compared to older DDR generations. This specific module is designed in the FB-DIMM (Fully Buffered DIMM) form factor, which is characterized by an Advanced Memory Buffer (AMB) chip on each module. This buffer serializes data, reducing the electrical load on the memory controller and enabling higher memory densities and speeds, particularly beneficial in multi-processor systems. The memory organization of this module is 1Rx8, indicating it has a single rank with an 8-bit wide data interface per chip. This configuration is common for many DDR2 modules. The FB-DIMM design, while offering performance advantages, typically requires more power and generates more heat than unbuffered DIMMs, necessitating robust cooling solutions in the systems where they are installed. The HYMP564F72CP8N3-Y5-AB-C is intended for use in server and high-end workstation platforms that specifically support FB-DIMM memory, such as certain Intel Xeon or AMD Opteron based systems. By increasing the system's available RAM, this Hynix memory module helps to improve overall performance, allowing for smoother multitasking, faster application loading times, and the ability to handle larger datasets and more complex workloads. It is a crucial component for environments where computational intensity and memory-intensive applications are common, ensuring that the system's memory subsystem is not a bottleneck. Compatibility with the specific motherboard and chipset is essential for proper operation.
