Press Release: Super Talent Announces 4 GigaByte DDR2-800 Gaming Kit

SuperTalent, a memory company, has announced that they are joining the lucrative memory market with 4GB capacity and 800MHz speed. That's a lot of RAM, even by today's standard and it should be targetted for those users going for Microsoft* Vista. I am not excited with this announcement, it should have been released sooner rather than later. Anyway, check out their press release.

San Jose, California – March 26, 2007 -- Super Talent Technology, a leading manufacturer of DRAM memory modules and flash products, today announced a new 4 GigaByte 800MHz DDR2 memory kit that is ideal for gamers and enthusiasts. The new T800UX4GC5 is a matched pair of 2 GigaByte 800MHz DDR2 non-ECC unbuffered 240-pin DIMMs. This kit has been tested and is guaranteed to operate at 800MHz in a dual channel motherboard at 5-5-5-15 latencies at 2.1 Volts. Each module is constructed using sixteen 128Mbit x 8 FBGA chips organized into a dual-rank 256M x 64 module, and clad in Super Talent’s blue cast aluminum HE heatspreader.

“A fast new breed of affordable gigabit DDR2 IC’s is now making new modules feasible that three months ago were impractical”, stated Joe James, Marketing Director at Super Talent Technology. “This kit is ideal for memory hungry applications running in Windows™ XP x64 and Windows Vista™ Ultimate operating systems, allowing customers a path to 8 GigaBytes of system memory by using two kits”, Mr. James added.

These modules are manufactured and tested in Super Talent’s state-of-the-art Silicon Valley factory. Every Super Talent module built is hand tested in a motherboard under load to ensure the highest level of reliability. The T800UX4GC5 kit will be available this week at an estimated street price of $438.

Tech Link (Memory): SuperTalent DDR2 memory kit

Bit-Tech has a quick review of a new high-frequency DDR2 RAM running at DDR2-1000MHz with CL5-5-5-15 timing but can also fly happily at tighter timing of CL4-3-4-8 with 800MHz speed. Wow, either of those timing is a sure fire winner. This memory looks good, if only for the 2v requirement, which may not really be attainable on non-enthusiast board. But hey, anyone getting this are most probably running high-end boards anyway.

Supertalent is a relatively unknown name in memory, but the firm is aiming to make a big splash with its new line of enthusiast memory modules. First out of the block is what the Silicon Valley boys claim is a matched memory set amongst the fastest available on DDR2.

The 1GB modules (making a 2GB dual-channel kit, part number T1000UX2G5) are rated to 1000MHz at 5-5-5-15, or 800MHz at tighter 4-3-4-8 timings. Intel chips will run a memory divider that is happy at 800MHz and 1067MHz, but getting to 1000 requires a CPU overclock in most cases - so you'll need decent cooling, as well as decent memory.

We wanted to find out how the memory performed at each of these different levels, and also whether or not it would overclock up to 1067MHz without having to change the CPU frequency.

Press Release: Super Talent Announces World's Fastest 2GB DDR2 Kits

Another reason to move to DDR2 technology. They just keeps getting better and better and better and better and better. No wonder, the other CPU maker is moving into this field. Too bad, unlike Intel® processors, those who will be migrating from their old CPU can not bring their favorite uber RAM since RAM technology is tied to the freaking CPU. Intel® have shown that integrated memory controller isn't the real deal (take a look at Banias, Dothan, and Yonah) for performance (hey, Intel® dropped Timna anyway).

Thru modular approach, users has more options to mix and match technology. For overclockers who love their CPUs and RAM, they can maintain to use the same CPU and RAM and just upgrade their motherboard. There's also an option to use newer CPU with older chipset which are proven stable (i.e. i865 chipset on LGA775, so this gives users the ability to use LGA775-based CPU with AGP and DDR1). Well, enough with the blah and click below for the full scoop.

Super Talent Announces World's Fastest 2GB DDR2 Kits

San Jose, California - February 13, 2006 -- Super Talent Technology, a leading manufacturer of DDR and DDR2 memory modules, today announced a new 800 Megahertz, 2 Gigabyte DDR2 memory kit. Super Talent's new T800UX2GC4 is a matched pair of 1GB PC2-6400 Low Latency DDR2 modules.

Super Talent engineers, after exhaustive testing, developed these modules from carefully screened components to deliver unmatched performance. This kit has been tested extensively in Super Talent's engineering labs on multiple enthusiast motherboards to ensure compatibility and reliability at very high clock speeds. Every T800UX2GC4 kit built is fully tested in a dual channel motherboard at 800MHz at 4-3-4-8 latencies to guarantee that it meets its spec.

Super Talent Marketing Manager, David Crume, said "This DDR2-800 kit is by far the fastest 2GB kit we've ever seen. It gives power users the best of speed, latency and density in one kit. The net result is unrivaled memory performance." Mr Crume continued, "Until now, enthusiasts have had to settle for either high memory clock speed or low latency, but we've answered both demands in one product."

Decked out with thermally bonded aluminum heat spreaders, these modules offer optimum thermal performance. Keeping critical components cool not only enhances performance, it also extends the life of the components. All Super Talent DRAM modules are backed by a lifetime warranty. T800UX2GC4 is available today from resellers worldwide.
