Hmmmm.

I could load a Blu-ray to a ramdisk, then feed a 2011 socket CPU with enough data to keep it processing at 100% continuously until that video stream is compressed. I'd love to say this is a great idea, but...

32 GB of RAM currently runs around $190 for a good pair of 4 channel sets. A good 60 GB SSD runs at $90. With the price premium attached, 64 GB of RAM will probably run over $600. I could get 32 GB of RAM, 2 60 GB SSDs to run in RAID, and have enough money left over to purchase a medium performance video card.

Why would I want 64 GB of RAM then? The one or two programs that could utilize that amount of RAM are out of the consumer pricing range, and the ramdisk is an expensive and foolish proposition.

Maybe whenever the 8 GB sticks reach reasonable levels this is worth looking at. Otherwise, this is useless to 99% of users. Though I bet this is an excellent bit of news for those that run servers.
