    Are the FZ190's supposed to have ddr2 or ddr3 memory? I saw areference to another machine (HP I think) which implied that our FZ190 should have DD3. However CPU-Z reports I have DDR2 (see attachment).

    Note: when on battery, the frequency shifts, as needed, between 166 to 332.

    DDR3 memory is not supported by any mobile chipsel so far, intel or otherwise, so there really isn't any doubt..

    Looking at some earlier discussions it apears that the DDR3 was Video memory.

    Current generation video cards actually use GDDR3, which is NOT the DDR3 that's beginning to be supported on new motherboards. We might see video cards with GDDR4 real soon.
