28. Fully buffered memory systems place a memory buffer device on every memory module, which unlike traditional memory controller devices, use a serial data link to the memory controller instead of the parallel link used in previous RAM designs.

This increase is due to the time required to convert the parallel information read from the DRAM cell to the serial format used by the FB-DIMM controller, and back to a parallel form in the memory controller on the motherboard. In theory, the FB-DIMM's memory buffer device could be built to access any DRAM cells, allowing for memory cell agnostic memory controller design, but this has not been demonstrated, as the technology is in its infancy
