To coincide with the launch of AMD's new Socket AM2
platform, Corsair has announced the world's first DDR2-800 2GB memory kit with
a memory latency of CL3. The TWIN2X2048-6400C3 modules operate at 800MHz and
offer the industry’s lowest latencies of 3-4-3-9.
The TWIN2X2048-6400C3 takes advantage of the newly announced Enhanced
Performance Profiles (EPP) which was developed by Corsair and NVIDIA and the
fine-tuned memory performance parameters that it affords. Here’s Corsair’s take
on EPP:
These profiles elevate
memory performance by taking full advantage of the additional memory parameters
that are now added to the unused portion of the JEDEC standard Serial Presence
Detect (SPD). EPP brings simplified overclocking success for entry level
enthusiasts, and access to more advanced memory specifications and a higher
recovery point for hard-core overclockers. To take full advantage of the
Enhanced Performance Profiles, motherboards designed with a special BIOS can recognize
the presence of EPP settings. Once these settings are enabled, the system boots
directly into the memory’s specified settings and takes immediate advantage of
the increased performance.
The TWIN2X2048-6400C3 is now from Corsair’s authorized
distributors, resellers, retailers and e-tailers.
