Memory architecture of RX600 S6
Figure 3: Memory architecture of RX600 S6
Each CPU comes with 2 internal memory controllers (so-called Mboxes). Each
memory board comes with two memory ’buffers on board’ (so-called BOBs).
Each BOB controls two memory channels (e.g. A, B or C,D). For performance
reasons two channels of different BOBs are used in parallel to access the
DIMMs. The DIMMs that are locked together this way as pairs are called
’lockstep pairs’.
