Kingston, the world's largest independent memory leader, proudly offers HyperX, memory for gamers and PC enthusiasts. HyperX modules are specifically engineered and tested for higher speeds and lower latencies. HyperX is available in DDR and DDR2 memory technologies. Like all Kingston memory modules, HyperX is 100% tested, with a lifetime warranty and 24/7 free technical support.


		KHX FB-DIMM High-performance, low-latency HyperX® 800MHz DDR2 ECC FB-DIMM Server memory is now available from Kingston®

		KHX SO-DIMM High-performance, low-latency HyperX® 667MHz DDR2 SO-DIMM notebook memory is now available from Kingston®.

		KHX DDR3 DDR3 is the next generation of DDR memory technology. It is an evolution of DDR and DDR2 memory technology that delivers higher speeds (beyond 1333MHz), lower power consumption and heat dissipation. It is not backwards compatible with DDR2 or DDR based motherboards, due to incompatible module connection, voltage and DRAM technology. DDR3 HyperX is available now in speeds PC3-1375 and PC3-1500.

		KHX DDR2 HyperX DDR2 memory modules offer faster speeds, lower latencies, higher data bandwidths and lower power consumption than DDR memory. DDR2 memory modules are not backwards compatible with DDR-based motherboards, due to incompatible module connections, voltage and DRAM technology. DDR2 HyperX is available in speeds ranging from PC2-4300 to PC2-9600 and in 1GB and 2GB dual-channel kits.

		KHX DDR Kingston HyperX memory is designed based on the latest DDR specifications available, and is 100% tested at Kingston's flagship factories. HyperX DDR modules range from speeds of PC2700 to PC4300. HyperX is available in single and dual-channel memory kits.

† The information below will help illustrate the appropriate settings when adjusting the memory timings in the motherboard BIOS for optimum performance. Please note that these settings may vary depending on motherboard make/model or BIOS update.

Sample:

Part Number	Timings

Timing	Definition	Abbreviations	What it does
	CAS Latency	CL	Delay between activation of row and reading of row
	RAS to CAS (or Row to Column Delay)	tRCD	Activates row
	Row Precharge Delay (or RAS Precharge Delay)	tRP/tRCP	Deactivates row
	Row Active Delay (or RAS Active Delay, or time to ready)	tRA/tRD/tRAS	Number of clock cycles between activation and deactivation of row
	Command Rate	CMD Rate	Delay between chip select and command

Notice: All Kingston products are tested to meet our published specifications. Some system or motherboard configurations may not operate at the published HyperX memory speeds and timing settings. Kingston does not recommend that any user attempt to run their computers faster than the published speed. Overclocking or modifying your system timing may result in damage to computer components.
