Following A-Data and OCZ, now it’s time to OCZ to announce the launch of its triple-channel DDR3 kits for the forthcoming Intel Core i7 processor. Just to refresh your mind, the memory controller integrated on Core i7 processors provides three memory channels, i.e. it is capable of accessing three memory modules at the same time, in parallel, in order to improve performance – in theory triple-channel architecture provides a 50% increase of available bandwidth compared to a dual-channel architecture running at the same clock rate. So in order to achieve the best possible performance with a Core i7 CPU, you need to install three or six (if your motherboard supports six memory sockets, of course) memory modules.

Part of Corsair XMS series, the TR3X3G1333C9 and TR3X6G1333C9 kits are available in 3 GB (USD 166.30) and 6 GB (USD 315.20) capacities and work at 1.333 MHz with 9-9-9-24 timings.
