Kingston has launched its latest memory product called HyperX FB-DIMM 800MHz for the Intel Skulltrail platform. The modules are 800MHz low latency fully buffered units designed for high-end servers, workstations and extreme gaming systems.

The RAM is shipping now in 2GB kits. Timings for the RAM are CL4-4-4-12 at 2V and the RAM is reasonably priced at $169 for a pair of 1GB DIMMS for 2GB of total memory. Kingston says when installed in quad-channel mode the memory can provide high data bandwidth.

"In a new tradition of expanding the Kingston HyperX product line, we are pleased to introduce HyperX FB-DIMM modules for customers building specialty workstations, servers and performance gaming systems based on the Intel 5400 chipset," said Mark Tekunoff, senior technology manager, Kingston. "Using a specialized dual-phased cooling system to cool the FB-DIMMs' controller IC, this new design will provide optimal temperature conditions. As part of our production process, these new modules have been tested on the Intel Skulltrail platform."
