DDR4 offers no advantages over DDR3.
You're right, but I think the focus should be on how the two differ in performance rather than the specific platform. When discussing compatibility or system design, the choice of platform becomes more important. Also, it's clear that DDR3 isn't supported in today's PCs, so it's probably not worth bringing up.
Latency improves marginally with increased DDR4 speeds, and data transfer rates are substantially enhanced. The graphs also reflect "IPC," which remains comparable between DDR4 and DDR3, though with noticeably faster clock speeds.
DDR4 tackles the latency gap through significantly faster clock rates, making 3600MHz a typical high-speed standard, comparable to 2133 on newer DDR3 systems. Samsung introduces DDR3-like delays because of its precise timing capabilities and strong potential for speed. For example, achieving 2400cl9 would match the latency of 3600cl14 on existing platforms with minimal challenges, while DDR4 offers much greater bandwidth—crucial for delivering data to modern processors. Overall, DDR4 provides a solid edge over DDR3 and advances more rapidly, reaching higher speeds with less time to develop.
