Kingston Debuts "World's Fastest" 2333MHz Triple-Channel HyperX RAM

Around here, all you really have to do is shout "world's first" or "world's fastest," and you'll have our attention. Particularly when talking about SSDs, HDDs, GPUs, CPUs and memory. Kingston Technology is talking about RAM today, and they've got yet another world's quickest with the planet's fastest triple-channel memory. Intel has certified the new module at 2333MHz, making it the perfect option for a new rig if you're into overclocking or simply can't sleep soundly without having the world's finest within your enclosure.

The new HyperX triple-channel DDR3 memory kit now has Intel XMP certification on the Core i7 platform. The 2333MHz kit runs at 9-11-9-27 timings at 1.65 volts, and Kingston achieved the feat on an X58 system consisting of the Intel Core i7-980X processor and ASUS P6X58D Premium motherboard. Soon, 2333MHz 3GB triple-channel kits will be shipping to market, as well as 2250MHz 6GB kits. Pricing is listed below, and as usual, it's not pretty. But it's not unexpected for the "world's fastest" to basically be the "world's most expensive."
