Ryan Petersen the cool CEO of OCZ technology, confirmed that the company is preparing to ship 4GB memory kits (2x2GB) shortly before Microsoft Vista shows up. Those guys do believe that you will need at least 2GB of memory for the good gaming experience on Vista.
Nevertheless the games will of course work even with 1024 MB memory and we can bet that people will run Vista with 512 MB but we are talking about the comfortable experience. Ryan also confirmed that they are excited about vista as the people will simply need more memory. What can make the memory guy happier than the sudden demand for its product?

    Hopefully they will up the DDR2 speeds much faster than 533 and have latencies better than 4 by then. :)

    He meant regular, not registered, hence "regular drr or ddr 2" :)

    The article doesn't really say- so either or both? 2x2GB currently markets as either and even can be Registered or not. And OCZ has dealt in all these types (just not in this package).

    However, it looks like the market may eventually belong to DDR2 or similar Lower Latency type in the future.

    It sounds like DDR3 will be the same physical size as DDR2. Just a matter of memory controlers.
