thought i'd give you boys heads up on the new corsairs to hit the market soon

4x1GB or 2 sets of 2x2GB kits at PC3-1600 7-7-7-20 ?

no man

this is 2x2GB

i believe they are also going to have some DDR1800 2x1GB kits out too ...not sure what latency but i guess CAS7 or 8

If they're Z9 chips, expect great timings & high frequencies like the 1GB DIMMs.

And like I told you before.................hold on...........erm....... have fun memtesting !

Oh now this is going to be interesting

did a bit of testing on the weekend >>> well we were benching some of our CPUs a little

i had A LOT of problems with the Gigabyte board. It needs a fair bit of work to clock DDR3 ram properly. I could not even post at stock timings and clocks......and what's worse i could not post with up to 2.1v CAS9 or 10 can't remember now at stock MHz ROFL

i'm sure they will fix that though. I spent most of the day battling a crappy dice tube and windows installs and then the board lol so i just did some quick max clocks on CPU and some 1Ms


times are bad as it would not allow me to reduce performance level below 9 and this is as fast as i could really get the RAM regardless of timings or volts but i don't bench 4.8GHz every day so it wasn't a waste afterall









Josh told me he had a blitz somewhere that takes DDR3 (almost at the end of the day zOMG and asus was definitely much better in RAM clocking....i was posting at around 950MHz CAS8 :shocked: but FARKING HELL THE CPUz 1.40.8 does not take validations with F7 shortcut

so nothing to post here guys


for some reason asus could not bench past 4.6GHz >> something strange there >> no luck at all ROFL.....i had two boards one that clocked RAM poorly and got half decent clocks on CPU and one that clocked RAM MUCH better but **** clocks on CPU hahahahha :rofl:

blitz was superfast in 32M compared to gigabyte but i didn't have time nor CPU clocks to do some nice numbers but it looked promising >>>


one thing is for sure i really need a blitz or P5K3 (with volt mods) to max the RAM and i am waiting for a really nice DICE tube i ordered from Duniek so when all this comes together it will kick arse

Just get the P5K3 Deluxe to tide you over.

Sounds like a troublesome day that did not go smooth by any means. You need to start somewhere I suppose. Dissappointing that the Gigabyte board is not working properly, this could be the first RAM compatibility issue with DDR3 we have seen.

Good luck with continued testing
