It a part really important when you have a slow RAM in your system... the eSRAM or eDRAM is used to cache some data and avoid the usual bottleneck caused by low speeds issues in memory RAM... for graphics a system uses a lot of bandwidth so these embedded RAM are fast and have amazing low latency.
nVidia will use embedded RAM in the next generation of GPUs because the graphical power is increasing more than the GDDR speeds... so the RAM speeds will be a bottleneck for PC games soon... so they will use embedded RAM like MS and Nintendo do.
