IIRC DDR4 already has pretty much the same energy consumption as LPDDR4, LPDDR4 gains when not in active use (sleep / hibernation). LPDDR4X does improve on LPDDR4 by a bit, but I don't know how sensible ~20% less energy consumption on RAM is in a server context. Especially when you're trading density for it.

Do you not think the IO voltage reduction alone gets you that? Or are you saying its just not worth it?
