Not true, because then in theory you could build just L1 - L2 - L3 Cache with 64GB RAM instead of 1 - 2 MB: For SRAM in L1/L2/L3 for example you need to manufacture 6 transistors for 1 bit, while for DRAM you need 1 transistor and 1 capacitor. Thus, would men your chips at that high speed would become very big, and the speed of information through the wires would make a difference: On semiconductor level its a difference if you need to travel 1inch or 10inch billion times per second, creating an "efficient border" of how big your SRAM could max be in dependence of chip-size (and other factors like thermal effects)
