Kitguru had an interview with AMD memory guru Natasha Sampson about the new Radeon RAMDisk tool, you can read it over here.
What kind of performance benefits do you get?
“You can expect to see extremely fast read and write speeds. With faster memory your RAMDisk would essentially be faster than an SSD since your files applications are by-passing your HDD or SSD. You could see read speeds up to 25.6GB/secs if you’re running memory at 1600MHz and even faster with higher frequency. With recent game testing, we’ve seen increased (huh?) load times as low as 4 secs depending on which parts of the game are being loading”.
