Corsair and Super Talent: Is DDR3 Ready for the Enthusiast?

First, we know now that both Corsair's and Super Talent's high speed memory kits are able to outpace the latest DDR2 memory setups when they are run at the 1800 MHz+ speeds they are rated at. The deficit that is accepted by increasing the latencies on the modules to reach these speeds was less than we expected and allowed the memory to run at such high speeds. The latency results showed that even in the random access cases that the higher speeds with slower latencies is the highest performing setup for the time being.
