Finalized in 2013, Hybrid Memory Cubes (HMCs) provide 15 times the bandwidth of DDR3 chips while consuming 70% less power and 90% less space. Like DRAM, HMCs lose their content without power.

DDR3 has higher speed and bandwidth than DDR2 memory modules and reduces power consumption by 30% compared to the DDR2. Furthermore, its ASR (Automatic Self-Refresh) design can decrease the ...
