EDIT:

For the upcoming Intel Z77 platform and processors, memory manufacturers will have to update their portfolio in order to provide certified memory that match Intel new specs and performance. Here are the new high end modules from G.SKill - the Trident X - that come with a completely new design and very high frequencies. Indeed the lowest frequency for this new series is no less than 2400 MHz!

catering to the extreme market a bit more I assume.

but yes the amount of lines they have is getting a bit out hand now.

[Hondacity]

its fine. they deliver quite well

[dinos22]

got the 2600 kit, runs pretty good

Hey Dinos Do you have a full Spi32M review lined up for the Ivy launch? With all these kits and slack timings, we need a comparison of MHz, timings and IC density

[dinos22]

I dont have time mate, im sure there'll be plenty of guys that would do that but it will be interesting to see how long it takes ppl to find the sweet spots

density wont do a great deal unless you are trying out 1GB sticks or something.

Hope average Ivy retail's imc can scale to 2800+...then ram pot usage with binned old psc/bbse will soar

I wait for the first oc tests...

you're on the right track

these air cooled gskill kits are actually really good every day benching sticks. Effortless clocking to big clocks and reasonable timings that are pretty decent if you dont want to freeze dimm slots

be very careful with your DIMM slot insulation, too much grease and you will lose clocks, too little and you will lose slots

we need a proper RAM subzero pot (one that does NOT require taking off heat-spreaders and one that actually has some sort of cooling ability on sides of heat-spreaders rather than the top)

who'll figure it out first
