GDDR5 and DDR3 are different components.. I mean... I said GDDR5 require less power than DDR3 but it generate more heat DDR3. |
No,no, no. ddr3 and gddr5 do EXACTLY the same thing. They charge/discharge a capacitor in a bitcell to figure out if there is a 1 or a 0. The path to reading the bitcell is a lot more complex in gddr5 than in ddr3 (because gddr5 has a lot more options and has to clock a lot faster), but the whole circuitry in both cases is made of transistors, tons and tons of transistors. There is no magic that says transistors in gddr5 create more heat than the same transistors in ddr3. The power you sink into a chip is converted into heat in the end.
