Buffalo Touts 1200MHz, 1250MHz DDR2 Memory Modules

Buffalo Technology, a well-known supplier of memory modules from Austin, Texas, is expected to unveil memory modules at 1200MHz and 1250MHz in the near future, according to reports from Japan. The company already sells 1150MHz Firestix-series memory modules, which are already the fastest in the industry and have slightly higher clock-speed than leading-edge products from Corsair Memory and OCZ Technology Group.

The speed is not what impresses me, really. It’s the fact that you can use them without active cooling. But, this is something I will have to see to believe. Even for standard timings at these speeds, 2.4v is the “norm”, and that is not too cool. They must’ve come across a nice batch of chips!
