Need a way to take HBM and adapt it to DRAM modules... so we have a fast path to getting consumer RAM...

... that and we need consumer mobos to be able to run RDIMM modules.

    AMD already proved they have HBM memory driving capabilties.. Some years ago they did a special edition R9 card with HBM memory on die as a "compact" GPU option.

    I'd imagine the overproduction of HBM wafers will not take long for them to start running DDR5 wafers in their stead when the implosion comes. Currently theres a pent up demand for cheap DDR so the memorycos will ride this out.
