  | These are the new sodium filled RAM chips to run cooler in systems with
  | those pesky hot running AMD processors...

 ;-)
 the modern version of the mercury delay loop
 (possibly my favourite(?) computer hardware of
 all time), dating from the days when memory
 was _faster_ than the cpu and you needed to
 slow down accesses .....

 nope.  sorry.  “sodium” is “sodium” en Français
 (same word).  (just in case anyone is confused.)

 sodimm meaning SoDIMM makes sense in context,
 and is clearly not what I want.  (thanks!)

cheers!
