EDIT:

 

For the upcoming Intel Z77 platform and processors, memory manufacturers will have to update their portfolio in order to provide certified memory that match Intel new specs and performance. Here are the new high end modules from G.SKill - the Trident X - that come with a completely new design and very high frequencies. Indeed the lowest frequency for this new series is no less than 2400 MHz!

oh great, another G.Skill lineup

Removable top fin of the heat spreader

 

catering to the extreme market a bit more I assume.

 

but yes the amount of lines they have is getting a bit out hand now.

[Hondacity]

its fine. they deliver quite well

[dinos22]

got the 2600 kit, runs pretty good

[K404]

Hey Dinos Do you have a full Spi32M review lined up for the Ivy launch? With all these kits and slack timings, we need a comparison of MHz, timings and IC density

[dinos22]

I dont have time mate, im sure there'll be plenty of guys that would do that but it will be interesting to see how long it takes ppl to find the sweet spots

 

density wont do a great deal unless you are trying out 1GB sticks or something.

Hope average Ivy retail's imc can scale to 2800+...then ram pot usage with binned old psc/bbse will soar

I wait for the first oc tests...

you're on the right track

 

these air cooled gskill kits are actually really good every day benching sticks. Effortless clocking to big clocks and reasonable timings that are pretty decent if you dont want to freeze dimm slots

 

be very careful with your DIMM slot insulation, too much grease and you will lose clocks, too little and you will lose slots

 

we need a proper RAM subzero pot (one that does NOT require taking off heat-spreaders and one that actually has some sort of cooling ability on sides of heat-spreaders rather than the top)

 

who'll figure it out first

[dumo]

you're on the right track

2800+ on air at least:) Time to dust up those old 2GB rams or start scouring ebay for old 2200 pi or trident. lol Edited April 15, 2012 by dumo

[bob80]

Submerge the entire system in sub-zero mineral oil and cool the CPU with a pot.... Around -40°C on the motherboard/ram and -190°C on the CPU.

Quad-channel DDR3-2800 ? ... I'd want to see a s2011 platform capable of that for 24/7 operation

 

If we're talking about benching, a lot depends on whether 1400/11-13-13 is faster than, say 1200/7-11-7 or not. If higher memfreq is the way to go, then we'll have to buy these gay Samsung kits and/or have to find ways for BBSE/PSC/Hypers to get there. If not, 1200-1300MHz will be your typical benching range, in which case I'd want to see 7-11-7 (PSC) being put up against 8-8-7 (Hypers)

[Christian Ney]

lol, too many people came and the server crashed, restarting now, sorry for downtime

[knopflerbruce]

oh great, another G.Skill lineup

 

When i saw you commented on this i knew it wasn't a "hooray" comment:p

 

It's an existing series at least:D

You sure it's for sandy bridge e ?

 

Memories are ready but intel is to late lol

[Massman]

[pro]

Forget Hypers, hypers days are over, they don't have enough frequency to touch PSC unfortunately

[dinos22]

time to sell hypers Sam

[Hiwa]

I still have 7 hyper sticks but they are all gay on ivy, good psc ftw 2600+ cl6 under cold.

4 sticks? vdimm? temps?

[Hiwa]

4 sticks? vdimm? temps?

 

You don't need 4sticks for ivy benching not like sb, 2are enough, 1.85 -80 6-11-6

[TaPaKaH]

are Hypers a 'dud' even for the lowclock challenges where high CPU clocks won't cripple the memclocks?

You sure it's for sandy bridge e ?

...it says Quad Channel

[Christian Ney]

yeah it says Quad Channel, but under NB/Chipset it says only Z77, X79 is not written. So...

 

Maybe now Quad Channel = 4x modules ?
