Optimized for Current and Future Intel Platforms, Corsair demonstrates
production-ready DDR3-1600 DOMINATOR and previews next generation speed
grade
at DDR3-2000
TAIPEI, Taiwan, June 3 /PRNewswire/ COMPUTEX -- Corsair(R)
http://www.corsair.com, the worldwide leader in high performance computer
and flash memory products, today unveiled the world's fastest production
DDR3 memory rated at a blazing-fast 1,600MHz (PC3-12,800) and the world
preview of the Corsair DOMINATOR memory running at 2,000MHz (PC3-16,000).
Live demonstration of the new DOMINATOR memory will be on display in the
Corsair VIP suite (#1334) at the Grand Hyatt Hotel. The TWIN3X2048-1600C10D
DOMINATOR is the latest addition to the Corsair line of high-performance
memory modules. Also on display is the upcoming generation of DDR3
DOMINATORs, ranging from 1GB modules running at over 2,000MHz and 2GB
modules showing performance promise for 64-bit based applications. All DDR3
products have been developed to support the new Intel(R) P35 and X38
Express platforms, ensuring customers of an extreme user experience whether
for gaming or applications with high computing needs.
The TWIN3X2048-1600C10D DOMINATOR will be available shortly after
Computex. Both XMS3 DHX and XMS3 Classic products are currently available
through Corsair's worldwide authorized dealer channel:
FAMILY PART NUMBER SPEED LATENCIES
DOMINATOR TWIN3X2048-1600C10D 1600MHz 10-8-8-24
XMS3 DHX TWIN3X2048-1333C9DHX 1333MHz 9-9-9-24
XMS3 CLASSIC TWIN3X2048-1333C9 1333MHz 9-9-9-24
TWIN3X2048-1066C7 1066MHz 7-7-7-21
All DDR3 modules operate at lower memory voltages to deliver better
performance with the same amount of power when compared to DDR2. Dynamic
I/O Signal Termination and On-die Dynamic Termination (ODT) reduce the
reflective signals transmitted to standby RAMs, thereby enabling support
for higher memory frequencies. A larger prefetch means more data is
immediately available for the processor and the differential data strobe
reduces noise while accessing data, especially at higher frequencies.
"Corsair is supporting the industry's transition to DDR3 with a full
line of highly-engineered memory solutions. Our partnerships with leading
technology companies and suppliers have allowed us to be first-to-market
with the world's fastest production DDR3 memory and demonstrating our next
generation DOMINATOR running at 2GHz," said Jack Peterson, VP of Marketing
at Corsair. "DDR3 memory technology brings scalability and features that
DDR2 cannot deliver. The fact that we are able to realize 50% more memory
speed rating at launch compared to the standard DDR3-1066 specification is
simply stunning," continued Peterson.
Like their DDR2 brethren, DDR3 DOMINATOR and XMS3 DHX feature Corsair's
patent-pending DHX technology - an innovative quad-layer heat sink design
that optimizes memory performance and reliability by maximizing thermal
dissipation. With DHX Technology, heat is removed via two paths - the leads
of the BGA chips into the PCB (convective cooling) and the back of the BGA
packages into the custom designed extruded aluminum heat sinks (conductive
cooling).
"The enthusiast community demands solutions that push the envelope and
are capable of delivering the highest level performance experience, and
very fast DDR3 is the next step in delivering cutting-edge computing," said
Steve R. Peterson, Director of Chipset & Graphics Marketing, Intel. "We
work closely with Corsair to help deliver a cutting edge experience for the
enthusiast power user. Corsair's release of the new DDR3-1600 DOMINATOR
memory, combined with an Intel P35 or X38 Express chipset based
motherboard, plus an Intel Extreme Edition CPU, shows just how exciting
platforms based on DDR3 will be."
