There have been rumours that Samsung would be unveiling the world’s biggest memory module ever since they started shipping their 4GB DDR3 memory chip earlier this year.

Those rumours have proved correct with the launch of the 32GB DDR3 memory module. The record breaking module is aimed at the servers market.

The 1.35-volt module consists of 72 50-nm 4GB memory chips which are set on nine quad-die packages on each side of the module.

No news of a price just yet – but expect it to be fairly substantial.

That page confidently claims that the N97 will arrive on the 31st March, and cost the princely sum of £480 sim- and contract-free, and unlocked. There’s some specs too – I’ve listed them over the jump. Now… any advice on how to scrape together £480 by the end of March? Answers in the comments please.
