The Corsair TWIN2X-8500 is a strong performer at both high frequency and low latencies. Basically, depending on your needs, the ram can easily switch between the two options. To be truthful, the main market for this memory is going to be users with 1066MHz CPUs so that they can run their memory 1:1. That said, I think overall you'll see better numbers if you can tighten the timings at the expense of a slightly lower clock speed. In other words, if you're the owner of an Athlon AM2 or any 800MHz FSB Pentium CPU, you're much better off opting for a low latency DDR2 kit. However, if a 1066FSB CPU is in your future, it may be worthwhile keeping an eye out for the TWIN2X-8500 since it can be ran at lower frequencies if you need to.
