this is definatly gonna be a interesting set of ram if it holds up to the claims.

1200 mhz ram, for ATI's RD600, the NF680i annnnnnnnnd the 965 Chipset.
where it gets interesting is the 965 chipset part.
from my experience, getting 1200 mhz from a 680i isnt hard at all, but not so easy on a 965 board, unless you use the 1:2 ratio... which isnt very useful other then to see high mhz.

so to have 1200 mhz claimed to work in a 965 board, is definatly interesting.
in a RD600 or 680i, I see no real problems.
its very easy in those boards, if you get high end ones from Asus and DFI and such.

but even from the P5B Deluxe, 1200 isn't a common or easy thing to do.
so for a retail company to sell ram they say can do it...
thats definatly something to check out.

“The testing for Kingston’s new HyperX modules was done on ASUS motherboards with ATI Radeon chipsets, nForce 600 chipsets, and i965 chipsets,” said Raymond Chen, Vice President of Marketing, ASUS Computer International. “It is clear that these modules, paired with high performance ASUS motherboards, bring the ultimate in high frequency gaming memory to PC enthusiasts.”
