Verdens hurtigste DDR2 RAM ?

At RAM bliver hurtigere og hurtigere er en kendt sag - det har dog stået lidt stille for DDR2 vs. DDR1 moduler, men DDR2 har lige som det er gældende for grafikkort AGP vs. PCI-E en langt større båndbredde end DDR1 - og nu ser der ud til at Corsair med lancering af deres nye XMS2 5400UL med lav latency sættings har fundet de hurtigste moduler frem til Intels nye NF4 platform.
