Hi Scumbria; Dolphin uses both embedded DRAM and external DDR.

No one does DDR in embedded memory, as far as I know, cause embedded usually has more bandwidth than you need, and there isn't much of a pin limitation in full custom. If you need more, you just split the memory in two, and thereby double the bandwidth, without having to buy more memory than you needed. Though doing this does increase the die area, it increases it by a lot less than a factor of two.
