Corsair and ASUS: together for performance!

Thanks to the collaboration between ASUST in Taiwan and Corsair in California, the eyes of AMD manic tuners can shine.

According to the agreement, Corsair will market special versions of its XMS-3500LL PRO modules named "ASUS Ready", while the motherboard company will start production of A16N8-SLI cards with the fanciful name "Corsair optimized" supporting ×32 SLI technology. That's all well and good, but now comes the real twist. With this move, the memory company has the first mass-produced module in the world that can deliver DDR437 (218 MHz) performance with 2-3-2-6-1T latencies. The marketing texts mention a fifteen percent increase in memory performance when using the above modules. RAMs will be available in 2GB kits (two 1GB modules in a kit).
