Registered memory: Difference between revisions

'''Registered''' (also called '''buffered''') Buffers are an older technology than registers(CompTIA A+) '''memory''' modules have a [[Hardware register|register]] between the [[Dynamic random access memory|DRAM]] modules and the system's [[memory controller]]. They place less electrical load on the memory controller and allow single systems to remain stable with more [[memory module]]s than they would have otherwise. When compared with registered memory, conventional memory is usually referred to as '''unbuffered memory''' or '''unregistered memory'''. When manufactured as a [[dual in-line memory module]] (DIMM), a registered memory module is called an '''RDIMM''', while unregistered memory is called '''UDIMM''' or simply '''DIMM'''.
