Does anyone know when I can expect to see triple-channel DDR3 on the AM3 platform? Thanks.

Never. It would require a new socket.

Didn't think about that. I forgot that AMD put its memory controllers on the CPU... so.. how about AM4?

You'll probably see triple-channel from AMD within a year of triple-channel being worth something.

AM4 AMD CPU with quad channel DDR4 memory controller I can't wait for this to show up in motherboard it might come out in the late 4Q or 3Q 2010. this would blow intel away with there triple channel intel system. I think AM3 would be stuck into the dual channel for now. because of the backward compatibility for older DDR2 system. i think it AMD trun next yr.
