It's embedded in cotton so it wont get warm so fast... Bill gates thought of this idea after a nice crystal meth tripp.... seriously, i have no fucking idea.

To cause to be an integral part of a surrounding whole: “a minor accuracy embedded in a larger untruth” (Ian Jack).
Biology. To enclose (a specimen) in a supporting material before sectioning for microscopic examination.

Now, lets think about that and Dram... shal we?

It's embedded on the GPU chip, hence the 256 GB/s memory bandwidth to the eDRAM.

Also, this is pretty cool:

- 48-way parallel floating-point shader pipelines

How so? It says absolutelly nothing about the pipeline. Ohh wee, we have a pipeline that can go 48 ways........ and?

edit: 10MB embedded DRAM means exactly that, there will be ram on the GPU of size 10 MB. Ram on the GPU is ram you don't have to use elsewhere. The closeness of the ram also helps in latency ( in the milliseconds).

Ok, I interpreted it as it having 48 separate shader pipelines, which is quite a lot.
