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.
