Awesome, welcome to TPU GoldenMars! Though, I have to admit I haven't seen any GoldenMars products in the stores I shop at for computer parts. Perhaps you could link me to a store?

Ah, I just sent a confirmation that I received their Memory stick/SD card.
Let me start with a first support question.
On the site it says you sell FB-DIMMs using phrases like "lower latency". However FB-DIMMs aren't exactly known for low latency. Are these modules supposed to offer better latencies than other modules? Same for the throughput, raw bandwidth on FB-DIMMs is rather pathetic compared to normal DDR2 modules, are you claiming these modules are performing a bit better than other modules? Or is this just Intel talk which refers to theoretic bandwidth?
And as for scaling to DDR3, this is another argument that is used with FB-DIMMs commonly, is anything known about current chipsets supporting this? (5000x)
