First let's have a good look at the modules tested today, the 2 GB kit from Corsair - CMX1024-3500LLPRO.
The 2 GB kit we're testing comes as a matched set of 1024 MB modules. Any modern system supports dual-channel memory, so always go for the dual channel and thus dual modules. Dual Channel effectively doubles your memory bandwidth.

dual channel memory, dual core CPU's, dual GPU graphics cards, dual monitors. I think there is some hip trend going on here, or is technology really bumping into a serious limitation ?The modules come with the black heat spreaders with white text (pirate flag?) to transport heat away from the memory. Hey, isn't that a sexy photo?
YES! A set of activity-indicating LED's set into the top edge of the memory.
The label on the stick describes the stock latencies for this RAM. Latencies really are the achilles heel of memory, so the faster the better. This is fast stuff!
