DENVER, CO (March 14, 2007) – Mushkin, a global leader in high performance computer products, today released the XP2-8500 5-4-4 modules available in 4GB dual-channel kits and 2GB single DIMMs. Designed for the most demanding enthusiasts, the XP2-8500 is specified for operation at 1066MHz, 5-4-4-12 latencies. Each kit is tested beyond its rated specification to ensure the overclocking headroom and quality that Mushkin customers expect.
Many companies are barely pushing out PC2-6400 4GB kits, let alone PC2-8500 with tight timings. Speaking of that though, they did also announce a PC2-6400 kit with 4-3-3 timings. Those are tight for even a 2GB kit, let alone 4GB. Kudos to Mushkin for this one.
