Mushkin Enhanced releases the XP2-8500 memory modules, which is rated at 5-5-4-12 at 2.2-2.4V. In overclocking applications, the end-user can raise the HTT or FSB considerably with the use of these modules, says the manufacturer. It is available in both 512 MB and 1 GB memory modules.
Toshiba unveils the first 8 GB SDHC (SD High Capacity) memory card. It is a class 4 memory card, which means it has a data write speed of at least 4MB a second. The new card will be introduced in early January 2007.
OCZ Technology's released the PC2-9200 FlexXLC memory modules, which feature a new cooling solution called FlexXLC, a hybrid water and air cooler. This is accomplished by using a hybrid copper and aluminum design with an optimized fin array and copper liquid injection system.
OCZ PC2-9200 FlexXLC modules have eight-layer PCB features thermally conductive power and ground planes to help heat transfer and reduce crosstalk.
The modules run at 1150MHz DDR2 and have latencies of 5-5-5-18. They are available in 2 GB kits.
OCZ has announced System Elite, a new hand-tested memory product family. Thw new memory also features XTC (Xtreme Thermal Convection) heatspreader technology. Parts will be available frequencies of PC2-4200, PC2-5400 and PC2-6400 in 512MB/1GB modules and 1GB (2x512) and 2GB (2x1024) dual channel kits.
The 533 MHz PC2-4200 runs at 4-4-4-12 timings, the 667 MHz PC2-5400 DDR2 runs at 5-5-5-12 timings and the 800 MHz PC2-6400 DDR2 runs at 5-5-5-12 timings.
Corsair launched the new DDR2-1142 TWIN2X2048-9136C5D DOMINATOR, which claims to be the world’s fastest DDR2 memory. Designed for the new NVIDIA nForce 680i SLI based motherboards, the memory runs at 1142 MHz and has latency timings of 5-5-5-15. It is available in 2 GB kits.
OCZ introduces NVidia SLI-Ready Series with two new memories: PC2-7200 SLI-Ready and PC2-8500 SLI-Ready. The new modules feature an exclusively designed heatspreader for NVidia. PC2-8500 modules are programmed to boot at 1066MHz DDR2 with timings of 4-5-5-15. It is available in 1 GB modules and in 2 GB dual channel kit. PC2-7200 runs at 900 MHz DDR2 with latencies of 4-4-3-15. It is also available in 1GB modules and in a 2GB dual channel kit.
The new OCZ PC2-6400 Titanium memory modules are programmed to boot at 800MHz DDR2. Equipped with Enhanced Performance Profiles (EPP), it can optimize the modules’ performance on current nForce 590 SLI-based motherboards. The latencies in those motherboards are 4-4-4-15 1T. On the other hand, it has latencies of 5-4-4-15 2T in motherboards that can't detect the EPP technology. The memory operates at 2.2 Volts and its available in 1 GB modules and 2GB Dual Channel Kits.
Corsair releases the TWIN2X2048-6400C4D Dominator memory with 800 MHz speed. It has a 4-layer heat sink design and brings DHX technology, to increase the thermal dissipation. Dominator has 4-4-4-12 latencies and is available in 2 GB kits.
OCZ launched the new PC2-6400 Gold Rev.2 GX XTC series, which operates at 4-5-5-15 timings an at 2.1 volts. This new DDR2-800 utilizes the XTC heatspreader design to increase ventilation and heat dissipation. It is available in 1 GB modules and 2 GB dual channel kits.
