Its RDRAM, eww... I think you can probably still get modules of RDRAM new (not sure) just remember it needs to be installed in matched pairs!

I'm guessing it's made by Hynix.

Unless you're using the Intel i820 chipset

Are there even any new motherboards that still use RDRAM?

Nope.

The i820 required CRIMMs in unused mem slots.

Yep, aka "terminators." I remember seeing this in a friend's old Slot 1 Dell system.
