System memory training with chipset attached memory is described. In accordance with the described techniques, a request is received to train a system memory of a device. Responsive to the request, contents of the system memory are transferred to a chipset attached memory. The device is operated using the contents from the chipset attached memory. While the device is being operated using the contents from the chipset attached memory, the system memory is dynamically trained. After the training is complete, the contents are transferred back from the chipset attached memory to the trained system memory.

System memory training with chipset attached memory

Duplicating memory content with chipset attached memory is described. In accordance with the described techniques, contents of a system memory are duplicated on a chipset attached memory over a chipset link. Memory requests are serviced using the contents of the system memory and the contents on the chipset attached memory. Servicing the memory requests includes servicing a first portion of a read request using the contents of the system memory and a second, remaining portion of the read request using the contents on the chipset attached memory. Servicing the memory requests further includes communicating a write request to the system memory and to the chipset attached memory.
