This kind of ram can fundamentally change the way computers are built if pushed into the mainstream.

You see, nowadays, integrated video cards can deliver respectable graphical performance. The intel HD and AMD APUs actually do provide a certain level of 3d performance. However, the main issue comes down to the ram. The GPU is bottlenecked by slow ram.

If fast ram like this can come down in price, than we can really start to see midrange/mid-high end integrated video cards now.

Damn. What the hell are you going to need all that RAM for? If you had 100 mods running with GWX your loading times would be still almost instant.

Craziness....

I got the joke. When I said "Craziness" I was referring to the amount of RAM that was.
