Kingston Technology has announced it is first to market with production volume of its ultra low-latency DDR2 800MHz HyperX memory modules. Available immediately, the new modules are the fastest performing memory available providing speed and performance without the need for overclocking.
"In lowering the latency even more, going to 3-3-3 with our new HyperX ultra low-latency 800MHz DDR2 modules, Kingston is offering both gaming and tech enthusiasts the flexibility to drive performance and benchmarking scores to the limit," said Mark Tekunoff, senior technology manager at Kingston. "Gamers and reviewers have been waiting for memory vendors to achieve the ‘holy grail' of 800MHz 3-3-3, and they wait no more."
Squeezing a little more performance out of current DDR2 technology, Kingston achieved the highest performance gaming memory without overclocking memory bus frequencies. The ultra low-latency HyperX is shipping in 512MB and 1GB modules as well as 1- and 2GB memory kits.
