Thinking about a new X58-based build with Intel's new 990X CPU? Kingston's got the perfect RAM for you...
Our build fingers are getting itchy. Not only are we in love with GIGABYTE's new G1 series of mobos, and not only are we getting a shiny new Core i7-990X chip from Intel, but now Kingston comes out with a sexy new range of HyperX RAM to go with it all.
The HyperX T1 Black DDR3 kit is a triple-channel monster made with the latest chips from Intel in mind. It's available in kits of three or six modules, in capacities up to a super-mega-giant 24GB.
"Our new HyperX T1 Black triple-channel kits give enthusiasts the opportunity to combine performance and to style into their PC build," said Ann Bai, DRAM Memory Sales Director, APAC Region, in today's release. "These high-capacity kits are ideal for the X58 products on the market, especially the new GIGABYTE G1-Killer gaming motherboards."
Here's the technical specs on the parts:
