Corsair ont annoncé aujourd’hui qu’ils viennent de briser la fréquence record pour de la DDR3 sur une plateforme Core I7 dans leur propre laboratoire. Les 2533MHz ont été atteint et pas avec un seul stick, mais bien en triple channel avec des timings agressifs, 7-8-7-20 !! Le kit utilisé était de la Corsair Dominator GT 2000MHz Cas 7 et le board sélectionné par Corsair était un EVGA X58 Classified. Le nouveau record a été validé via l’utilitaire CPU-Z, le standard de l’industrie pour vérifier les résultats d’overclocking.

FYI:

We have seen a number of reports across various forums about failures of modules (from Corsair as well as from other memory manufacturers) built with Elpida “Hyper” RAMs. Through lab testing, we have now been able to reproduce similar failures. We are continuing to test to determine the cause of these failures. Note that although a relatively small percentage of “Hyper” ICs appear to be affected, the rate of failure is not acceptable to Corsair or to our customers.

Due to these failures, we will no longer sell Hyper-based modules until the issue can be resolved. We have also have asked our retailers to return any modules they currently have on their shelves. Products impacted include TW3X4G1600C6GTF, TR3X6G1866C7GTF, TR3X6G2000C8GTF, TR3X3G2000C7GTF, and TR3X6G2000C7GTF. We are working on enhancing our manufacturing and testing process to be able to offer these parts again as soon as possible.
