I've noticed expensive DDR2 modules with specifications higher than standard.. such as this
Corsair Twin2X1024-8500 DDR-2
http://www.pcstats.com/artvnl.cfm?articleID=2005
I understand CAS latency (5-5-5-15) which is a big factor in speed, and oc'ing etc etc.. but what i can't seem to get a grasp on his the bus speed higher than what motherboards support currently. i havent seen a motherboard's DDR2 slot with native spec higher dan 800Mhz..
In my understanding this extra bus speed on these modules are for overclocking, where you have more headroom to push these RAMs further..
am i correct? or totally out of mark? hehehe
