Yesterday Corsair added two new products to their XMS Pro productline. The two newly announced products are ment for the AMD Athlon64.
  • CMX512-3200C2PRO – 512MB, DDR400, CAS2 module
  • CMX512-3200LLPRO – 512MB, DDR400, low-latency module
    The XMS ProSeries is a new series of ultra-performance modules that offers the same extreme performance XMS modules are known for, but also incorporates two essential new features: an all-new heatsink designed for optimum thermal efficiency, and memory activity LED’s. Corsair’s new highefficiency heatsink was custom designed especially for the XMS ProSeries.

    Crafted from cast aluminum, its larger size and mini fins have 95% greater surface area than standard memory heatspreaders. XMS ProSeries modules feature a row of LED’s on the top edge that display real-time memory activity level. Each memory bank has a row of nine dedicated activity LED’s that are illuminated as the level of memory activity increases. 512 Mbyte XMS ProSeries modules, with two banks, have a total of 18 activity LED’s in green, yellow and red.
