Sorry. I missinterpreted that. I thought the design of the mentioned
Alpha Systems, not the Alpha Architecture in general.

Well. AFAIK EV7 is the first Alpha implementation with build in RAM
interface. The older Alphas needed external memory controllers, so the
RAM type depends on the chipset. E.g. EV5 + CIA with FPRAM, later EV5
and EV56 used SDRAM with Pyxis. But who do I tell? ;-)
