It's no uncommon to have multiple RAM vendors.   The 2 we've seen so far were Hynix and Samsung.  I don't doubt Micron is also a vendor.

Many many people, including me.

All this reading (of people arguing) is making me hungry. I hope I don't get crabby again.

I'm no tech buff but I know that its way too early to start pointing fingers at the Wii U and saying that's not going to be successful because its under powered or that its not going to fare well when other two come.

As an anecdote(ish) Remember this? http://www.wiichat.com/forum/nintendo-wii-hardware/18024-wii-graphics-myths-debunked.html

I only posted the link cause it reminds me of this.

OK. Thanks.  Like CPUs and GPUs I thought all components came from the same vendor.

What's taking the discovery of the GPU model so long? Has it been rebranded to confuse the spies?

RAM are built to JEDEC specifications so even a different vendor can produce the exact same chip.

The RAM chips also have product model number son them so it's easy to tell what it is.

The CPU and GPU are customized so there is no model number branding on them.   At least not to the degree that you can just type it in and find a product page for it.

I see. Again thanks for the info.

You have a pleasant way of making it all so simple to understand when it comes to technical dummies like myself.

Love being the spectator on this sort of discussion and misunderstandings are quite entertaining to read! XD

I agree with you xD xD -_-

Makes fuck all difference, the speed of the main RAM hardly contributes anything towards performance.

huh what lol
