It is Game Time for DDR4 and Micron has the Ball

Big news out of Micron related to their involvement in DDR4 and all things memory. 

Micron, for its part, is content with being a quiet leader of the computer industry.  Its position as a dominant power was solidified by the mid-2012 acquisition of Japan's Elpida Memory Inc. (TYO:6665).  Elpida owned several large fabs worldwide, including a fab in the Hiroshima area.  Last year Micron finalized that transaction, just in time to capitalize on a surge in memory spot prices.

It will be interesting to see how DDR4 pans out and while the article states that consumer DDR4 memory won't be available until 2015 I did see working memory samples at CES.  They also say high-end servers and workstations will have DDR4 first and should make a debut sometime this summer.
