X-bit Labs reports JEDEC has approved the final specifications of fully buffered dual in-line memory module (FB-DIMM):

FB-DIMM represents a new memory architecture that is designed to provide enhanced reliability, greater bandwidth, improved scalability and a higher capacity per memory channel compared to current memory solutions.

“Fully Buffered DIMM represents an important new memory architecture, which JEDEC has carefully evaluated. With the ability to provide at least four times the capacity and significant bandwidth improvements over registered DIMMs, FB-DIMMs enable memory to keep pace with platform requirements, including increasingly faster processors, found in enterprise solutions,” said JEDEC board chairman Mian Quddus (Samsung Semiconductor) said
