The memory is Intel ‘XMP’ compatible and runs at a frequency of 2,133MHz.
Kingston’s second announcement also involves Sandy Bridge memory. The company’s 8GB 2,133-MHz HyperX memory kits have received Intel XMP certification for the P67 Sandy Bridge platform. According to Kingston, the HyperX kits are the first 8GB kits to be validated for use with Sandy Bridge. These kits are shipping immediately, with a price of $299.99 list.
“The modern design and look accentuates the new black and grey P67 motherboards just reaching the market,” said Stephane Rizzetto, EMEA product development manager of DRAM at Kingston Technology. “With performance memory frequency initially at 2133MHz and 1600MHz, these new additions to the family of HyperX products meet the demands of everyone from the enthusiast vying for the fastest benchmark score to the weekend gamer.”
All of the new kits are covered by a lifetime warranty and are expected to become available in the region in the coming weeks.
