This module has several advanced features to improve performance. The Dampening resistor will filter out noise created by the other components in your computer. This will create a cleaner signal with fewer errors, increasing the stability of your memory.
The EEPROM allows for easy upgrading. With this chip, your memory module will communicate with your motherboard telling it what type of memory and at what speed it operates. This will optimize its performance and allow for easy installation.
RAMBUS (RDRAM) uses the most advanced technology. With higher bandwidth and greater speeds than any other memory in the market, it is a must buy for mission critical machines and hard core gamers.
