CeBIT 2008: The Fastest Memory on Earth

[Guest]

Every year, manufacturer of memory modules fight for the fastest module crown. Corsair wins, once again, this year's title by reaching 2 133 MHz or only 33 MHz more than OCZ, but at aggressive timings: 8-8-8-24. The equivalent in DDR1 would hypothetically be a module running at 533 MHz CAS 2, which may be more meaningful. Running on an NVIDIA reference motherboard built on a 790i chipset, this accomplishment requires a voltage of 2.1 V. The machine crashed when we came on the booth and had to reboot before we could launch CPU-Z and verify the value.
