A Challenge for Everyone: The 4x4x4 Tileable RAM Cube - properinglish - 01-18-2014
WARNING: The challenge described below is not guaranteed to be possible to complete. Attempt at your own peril.
For the past few weeks I've been working on new GPU components and something that I've wanted, but have been unable to build is a 4x4x4 solid-state and repeater-lock based RAM cell. I've got a bunch of great 4x4x5 designs, but 4x4x4 has remained elusive. At this point, I'm not even sure it's possible, but I'm turning to the ORE community to see if anyone can come up with a design! Here's what you need to know:
1. It must be solid-state (no pistons) and use repeater-lock memory.
2. It must be stackable in ALL directions - that means left/right, front/back, and top/bottom stackability.
3. Inputs must be as described:
a. The data input and output lines must be parallel.
b. The read and write control lines must be parallel.
c. The lines in a. must be perpendicular to those in b.
4. The only acceptable delay between cells is for signal extension. Repeaters, comparators, and torches may not be used as easy insulation. Remember that in RAM you want to be able to access all of your data very quickly - that's why this rule exists.
Helpful Tip: Just because the cell has to stack as if it's 4x4x4, it does not need to be a 4x4x4 unit. It is perfectly acceptable for cells to overlap as long as the end result is 4x4x4 stackable in all directions.
This should be all the information you need, but if I think of anything else I will update this post. Good luck!!!

WOOOOO I DID IT EVERYONE PLS GET ON MY LEVEL
If you want to make it better (probably very hard) you can warp to 4x4x4ram

You should have consulted around! I've also got one, and a 4x3x4 one if you use one bus for read and write. I think I have some hidden away in schematics, but I won't go digging.

Arghhhh, I managed to get it at 3 wide/4 long/5 tall it barely has any air blocks..
I feel like my brain is having fatal damage lol
read mechanism is just not very efficient.I used subtracting mode comparators priginally than switched to classic 2-torch read design.
