Kingston Technology claims it is first to market with its new ultra low-latency DDR2 800MHz 3-3-3 HyperX memory modules:

Kingston unveils ultra low-latency 800MHz memory

now, correct me if im wrong, but isnt low-latency...........oh i dont know........bad for gamers?

the timings is 3-3-3, n that can be matched with DDR SDRAM with lower timings my gosh. I understand that lower seems to be better, but dont u guys think theinquirer.net got it wrong that low-latency means higher timings?

i always thought that 4-4-4 or 5-5-5 is better, but any higher is worse proving low-latency with higher timings, right?

sry, but i was just confused by this article, stating that this is aimed towards gamers when it says it's low-latency, which ive always read is bad to have.

nope, lower latency is better. it has to do with something how many cycles it goes through, like pipelines on a cpu....

In the C2D's it has been tested already that they run best with Cas Lat 4 memory so this is useless with an Intel Core 2

really? But i thought smaller timing is a bad thing.

if not, then ill look into buying this RAM when i get the RD790 at the end of the year.

This is good news for those with AM2 processors.
