Kingston Readying 24 GB DDR3 ValueRAM Kit
 

Kingston Memory putting memory technology development in the right direction, by upping the per-module density to 4 GB. When produced in a large scale, the modules may go into making 2x 4 GB dual-channel, 3x 4 GB and 6x 4 GB triple-channel memory kits. The company put engineering samples of its new 4 GB ValueRAM modules to test.

In its teaser video (dubbed tech demo), using a Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5 and Intel Core i7 920 based system, Kingston was able to demonstrate a mammoth 24 GB of system system memory by smoothly operating several virtual machines, which serves as a valid test to show how 24 GB of memory helps. The video was posted on YouTube and can be watched here. Kingston notes its pre-production 6x 4 GB kit to cost around $2000 to produce.

Shocking price, but that is WAY better than the prices seen for similar products from Wintec or Samsung.

Not shocking for a pre-production sample. It will plummet once they start mass production.

Omg... that's insane amount for desktop ! I hope i'll have enough cash to pick 2X4GB in half a year, when lynnfield comes out..

Good luck GFC, there are barely any motherboard of x58 that support 24GB of RAM, not even close for ASUS mobos. Gigabyte has a good deal of 24GB compatible motherboards, however I doubt that the memory support would be anything like that for Lynnfield.

24GB huh? I can't imagine buying a 24GB value ram kit. I got put off of value ram when I got memory errors playing zdaemon and quake 4 on my first s478 computer

Such a large amount of money...

At least It's an increase in size WORTH making a news story about...

i can't imagine how someone pay 2000$ for ram's

Nobody will pay $2000 for that kit, Kingston isn't selling it.
