Great, so the idea's out there now go wild :)
as it happens i just came across those wacky industrial ARM devs boards ,they even do an arm on DIMM module now LOL
a massive thing https://community.freescale.com/videos/1043 but someone may have a reason to go that large perhaps...
regarding "DDR3 isn't directly usable with standard CMOS I/O ports " im not up on this so a shot in the dark on the different FPGA prices but theres a open core DDR3 Synthesizable BFM clock here http://opencores.org/project,ddr3_synthesizable_bfm
it says its slow ut perhaps some FPGA guys here can improve its speed and function on a cheap FPGA ?
and/or perhaps interfacing to a cheap generic ARM cortex ddr3 port could be fashioned, didnt i read somewhere there was also an Xcore FPGA with ARM core at its base, did that have DDR onboard....
anyway fun times ahead.
