    Two quick things:

    First, my memory company has been sitting on (not releasing) a 1GB DDR3-1800 CL9 1.5V product for a few months now..

    We haven't seen there being enough demand for this product in the dual-channel enthusiast market,
    so we're probably just gonna wait to launch this product and make it a tri-channel kit, synchronized with the Nehalem release date.

    Secondly, the limitation on the memory voltage doesn't create much of a limit on the CPU overclock that you can achieve.
    The memory has its own base clock multiplier, which you can lower if you don't want to overclock the memory while overclocking the CPU.

    Third, even at very low (for DDR3) memory speeds, the triple channel and IMC get more memory bandwidth than you could dream of:
