Happy Holidays,
Fudzilla has a link to Corsair i7 2000 7-8-7-20 @ 1.65v ?coming soon.?
http://www.fudzilla.com/index....iew&id=11107&Itemid=36
Also, 12/18 Ocz?s site added the same ratings in a new ?blade? series with a press release about an introducion at CES09 with availability shortly thereafter.
Funny, neither lists a water option, but Fudzilla?s linked screen shoots of the Corsair?s heat fins show screws to take the fins off.
I wonder, is Corsair standardizing a series of lines around (1) base heat sink with options? From an economy of scale cost prospective, it makes sense and it gives the end-user a better product.
On the high end, you could cap 6 slots with a combined air\water block and down the line to leaving the ?standard? fins on 3 individual modules of memory.
The Ocz?s are rather thin, but I can?t see running (6) modules at these speeds on air alone. On 1st glance, (3) modules at that speed seems to be quite a feat.
I can?t say I?m on board for the long term of a 4 channel controller hacked to 3 DDR3?s, but if I?m thinking of X58, 3 channels is the new standard.
Really, I don?t understand why DYI boards aren?t sized for the ATX server cases \ trays most DYI builders use anyway, but that is an another story.
P.s I enjoyed the X58 article, especially about how your going to change your testing to combat the issues facing product releases. Cheers!!!
