While JEDEC is making up its mind about approving of the DDR400 standard (see this news story), some enterprising memory module makers produce overclockers friendly stuff with working frequency getting closer to the sacred 400MHz.

Corsair Memory Inc. (which is also represented in JEDEC) made an official press release today announcing the launching of the new DDR SDRAM module CMX256A-3000C2, which officially supports 370MHz frequency (185MHz DDR) with CAS=2. The module is built of 8 chips (32Mx8), provides the maximum bandwidth of 2.96GB/sec (Corsair made it equal to 3GB, so the module is selling as PC3000) and is equipped with an aluminum heat spreader.

The module is said to be tested together with VIA and SiS’ chipsets at 185MHz DDR with 2-3-3 settings and 166MHz DDR with 2-2-2 settings and is already available for ordering. Unfortunately, the marking of the chips used was not reported. Actually, we expect their access time to be not higher than 5.4ns, but what if they approximated it here as well? :)

They also announced the availability for order of CMX256A-2700C2 modules working at 166MHz DDR (DDR333 or PC2700) with CAS=2.
