G.Skill claims to have built the fastest 32 GB memory kit, which runs at 2800 MHz.

G.Skill has launched its new Trident X 32GB DDR3 RAM (4 x 8 GB) that feature a clock rate of 2800 MHz and claims to be the fastest memory kit at this capacity. The Trident X F3-2800C11Q-32GTXD is known to be compatible with all Z77 chipsets when paired with an Ivy Bridge CPU.

The kit’s pricing, availability and compatibility at 2800 MHz with other platforms is presently unknown and will be announced closer to its February 2013 release.

    I think they will be more beneficial on AMD platform with APU

    But nieur, by the time one can afford that memory, can't they get a dedicated GPU?

    I'd really like to see a high end Haswell chipset(Z77 equivalent) offering DDR4. DDR3 might break 3000MHz, but I don't see it going much past that.

    the voltage is probably through the roof and those timings are loose as hell. what application would need this anyway? ddr 3 1600 should be more then enough, even for overclocked processors.

    nieurI think they will be more beneficial on AMD platform with APUTrinity IGP seems to be tapped out at 2133MT/s so you will probably need to wait for the next-gen APUs for that.

    tuluiI'd really like to see a high end Haswell chipset(Z77 equivalent) offering DDR4. DDR3 might break 3000MHz, but I don't see it going much past that.Haswell's memory controller is integrated in the CPU (just like i3/i5/i7 and their Celeron/Pentium counterparts) and only support DDR3. Whatever chipset the motherboard uses makes no difference.

    Worst way to view pictures I have ever seen on the internet. Developers of this system should be beaten and the QC that allowed this to make production should be beaten even more.

    Toms please fix this as it is the single biggest problem on your website. It should be relatively simple to make clicking a picture open some kind of popup of the enlarged version, jquery has tons of options to display things like this without doing popups or even new windows.
