PC Stats posted a review on the Corsair Twin2X2048-6400C4 Memory. This state of the art 2GB set of memory retails for $300 CDN ($270 US, £143) which is quite an aggressive price for such great memory.
Corsair and nVIDIA have been working together to develop a new type memory standard that will help unlock more performance from one's PC dubbed EPP. Enhanced Performance Profiles or EPP is an open standard that's open to every memory manufacturer and quite a few have already jumped aboard. What EPP does is when used in a compatible motherboard and enabled in the BIOS, it will automatically adjust the speed, timings and voltages of the memory for more performance. Much like how dynamic motherboard overclocking has increased performance for end users, EPP promises to make things even sweeter by fine tuning memory settings. At the moment only nVIDIA's high end nForce 590 SLIs chipset support EPP but we do expect other chipset manufacturers to adopt this feature as well. Memory that is EPP compatible is dubbed SLI Ready so look for that nVIDIA sticker on the packaging if you want EPP friendly memory.

Performance of the Corsair Twin2X2048-6400C4 memory was excellent as expected and is perfect memory for Socket AM2 Athlon64 users. It's amazing to see how efficient the Athlon64 memory controller is compared to Intel's DDR2 memory controllers. In terms of overclocking the Corsair Twin2X2048-6400C4 was also very good, the DIMMs tested were able to crack the 1000 MHz barrier while keeping 4-4-4-12 memory timings! Loosening it up to 5-5-5-15 allowed the memory to hit 1104 MHz before the motherboard topped out, pretty impressive wouldn't you say?
