“Corsair seems determined to hold the record for the highest memory speed in production memory. We recently reviewed the highest speed memory available at the time in Corsair Dominator DDR2-1111 (PC2-8888). Several other memory makers tried to match or surpass the Corsair speed record and Corsair responded with PC2-10000 (DDR2-1250) which was first demonstrated at CES earlier this month. A few short weeks after CES we have production PC2-10000 fresh from Corsair for testing.”Here are some more Memory articles from around the web:

DDR hits 10,000
Corsair continues to push the boundaries of RAM speed, most recently with their 2GB Dominator PC2-10000, running at DDR-1250 and 5-5-5-18 timings. They also come with a recommendation to use a board based on an NVIDIA 680i chipset to get the full speed out of these DIMMs, noting that other chipsets are going to have a hard time getting up to speed. AnandTech was even more impressed when they tried overclocking, managing DDR2-1315 without changing the timings and managed to tighten it up to 5-4-4-12 at 1250MHz by bumping the voltage up to 2.4.
