DDR3-2533 from Corsair   Posted on 07/05/2010 at 00:02 by Marc

	G.Skill and its DDR3-2500 can think again as Corsair has just trumped it in the futile but sustained race to produce the fastest DDR3. Corsair has announced the Dominator GTX4, which is certified for DDR3-2533 (a little bit over a 1% improvement) at 9-11-10-30 and 1.65v. G.Skill can still say, then, that its DDR3-2500 is at 9-11-9-28. Corsair says that the certification of these bars was carried out on a Gigabyte P55 and Lynnfield processor, and that only a small percentage of chips are able to maintain such a clock. On sale exclusively on the Corsair site, the 2 GB bar is at $325 … or almost exactly the price of 12 GB of standard DDR3!

A 27’’ 1ms from ViewSonic!   Posted on 07/05/2010 at 00:01 by Marc

	ViewSonic has announced the VX2739wm, a 27" LCD screen at 1920x1080 with a response time of just 1 ms! While this is impressive, we should of course verify it in practice to see if it is really faster than the 2ms screens currently on the market. The panel, apparently a TN, displays a contrast ratio of 1200:1 and brightness of 300 cd/m². In terms of connectivity, the VX2739wm offers VGA, DVI and HDMI ins, as well as a 4 port USB hub. Energy consumption has been announced at 58w in standard mode and 38w in energy economy mode. The VX2739wm is already on pre-order on the other side of the Atlantic for $349.
