Corsair Twin2X1024-8500 C5 PC2-8500 DDR-2 Memory Review

Corsair Memory has introduced a whole slew of memory in the last month; the releases spanned the gamut from low latency DDR2-800 parts to super high speed DIMM's like the Twin2X1024-8500 C5 modules that PCSTATS is evaluating now. Even though much of the memory has been targeted towards Socket AM2 and Core 2 Duo users, these DDR-2 parts will work equally well with dual core Intel Pentium 4/D processors. Corsair's latest Twin2X1024-8500 C5 memorylt;/agt; is almost too hot to handle right out of the package.... just look at these specs - default timings are 5-5-5-15, each PC2-8500 module is 512MB in size, and Corsair guarantees that its memory can run at a blistering 1066 MHz!
