The CoolTechZone's bevy of industry insiders have produced yet another nugget of info this morning. This time they're all over AMD's upcoming adoption of DDR500 as their official platform standard.

"Up until today, DDR400 has been the official memory standard for majority of the platforms, but Intel made the change to DDR2, and now it’s AMD’s turn to make a change to their platform. According to an insider source, AMD has plans to adopt DDR500 as its official memory standard in the very near future."
