Effects of overclocking reached insane levels at Corsair labs: they made a 1GB stick of Dominator DDR3 SDRAM to run at 2462MHz, which is the highest frequency ever encountered in RAMs. This is heaven for gamers, as, along with other appropriate PC components, these sticks can make any resources-consuming application run very smoothly.
The memory module resisted the killer tests due to an integrated four-layer extruded aluminum sink that had the role of shuttling the heat away from the bits. In the experiments was used the Asus P5E3 Premium motherboard using Intel’s X48 chipset. The test was validated by CPU-Z and has set a new record among previously validated memory benchmarks. The memory sticks can be bought for a little over $200 per gigabyte.
