Kingston has today announced that it is first to market with a new ultra low-latency kit that reaches the holy grail of DDR2-800 with 3-3-3 timings.

Um... does this count too? Not sure whether it's beaten the Kingston stuff to market or not...

The modules will also be available in 1GB kits, or single 1GB/512MB modules too, priced at around £85, £80 and £42 (inc VAT)

So you can pay £5 less and only occupy 1 slot instead of 2 .... - am i missing something ?

Unless they're 2GB sticks at CAS3, this news is well and bunk. Everybody's been offering these latencies for a while.

Nope, not 3-3-3. Most "CAS3" modules are only rated for 3-4-4-*, although they will do 3-3-3-*

I think i will stick with 1.9V to run at 800Mhz 4-4-4-12 (my motherboards max is 1.95 anyway

)

So Kingston wins a newsworthy title for binning some chips and tweaking some synergetics? Sad.

As to your plight teamtd, why not voltmod? Had to for my P5B (no volts above 2.1 otherwise)
