Η Corsair Dominator χτυπάει τα 2462MHz, και αποκτά παγκόσμιο ρεκόρ στην συχνότητας μνήμης.

Ελεγμένα και επικυρωμένα από το CPU-Z, τα εργαστήρια της Corsair κατάφεραν την καταπληκτική ταχύτητα των 2462MHz σε CL=9 με ένα single-rank module 1GB. Αυτό το νέο παγκόσμιο ρεκόρ σκιάζει όλες τις προηγούμενες επικυρωμένες συγκριτικές μετρήσεις των επιδόσεων μνήμης CPU-Z. Αυτό το ρεκόρ επιτεύχθηκε χρησιμοποιώντας την βραβευμένη μνήμη DOMINATOR DDR3 με μια Asus P5E3 Premium μητρική βασισμένη στο chipset Intel X48. Αυτή είναι τώρα η υψηλότερη επιβεβαιωμένη DDR3 συχνότητα όλων των εποχών.

In other words, R700 should perform very much like a pair of 4870s in CrossFire. Or should it?
