    When the memory controller is not on-die, the same CPU may be installed on a new motherboard, with an updated northbridge to use newer memory. Some microprocessors in the 1990s, such as the DEC Alpha 21066 and HP PA-7300LC , had integrated memory controllers; however, rather than for performance gains, this was implemented to reduce the cost of ...
