DDR5 is on the way! We shouldn't have to wait too long to see next-generation DDR5 system memory land in systems, according to Samsung. Whether those will be gaming systems we'll have to wait and see what Intel and AMD have in store. But there's still plenty to be excited about right now as the memory manufacturing giant sets up its fabs for volume production of DDR5 in 2021.
The news comes straight from Samsung, who's just announced its first EUV-based DRAM, D1x. These new DDR4 chips will act as precursor to further EUV-based DDR5 products next year, including those intended for use within mobiles, servers, datacentres, and, you guessed it, PCs.
