Patriot Sector 5 DDR3-1333 CAS 9
Patriot has barely gotten its feet wet in the high-density DDR3 market, and its recently introduced PGV38G1333ELK 8GB dual-channel kit was the only package we could find to use its new 4GB DIMMs.

These DDR3-1333 CAS 9-rated modules are also the only devices in today’s lineup that do not default to DDR3-1333 CAS 8. A combination of SPD and XMP values seem to indicate that these use overclocked DDR3-1066 components.

Users with XMP-capable motherboards can easily select the rated speed, timings, and 1.65V voltage using one or two BIOS settings, while more experienced users can set everything manually. Users who can’t or won’t make manual BIOS adjustments will find that these modules default to proper DDR3-1066 CAS 7 settings and many programs show little to no performance difference between DD3-1066 and DDR3-1333.

Lets not forget 64 bit too eh Rab1d-BDGR ?
what are the timings they refer to... Can someone please explain what the are and how to interpret them?
I've got 2gb 4-4-4-12 DDR2 800 (PC2 6400).
Say I've got a mother board that holds ddr2/3 - Would I see much of a change in frame rate if all the other parts stayed the same?
There is no real difference in speed with memory. This just increases performance for larger applications. You will see maybe a change of 1 or 2 fps in games. Is it really worth it? You must remember that the speed of the memory means that it accesses faster. But if the memory isn't always accessed, then it will make little real difference.

Thank you so much....really appreciated
A little footnote to anyone with triple-channel DDR mobos - if you are thinking of putting three of these kits into your machine for a whopping 24GB of RAM then make sure you are using Windows 7 pro/ent/ult - "Home premium" is limited to 16GB of RAM....If you're rich and/or crazy enough to spend that much on RAM then I'm sure the more expensive OS is small change. :-/
Or Linux.
Look at this loser company Patriot trying to attain credibility and status by charging more for their crappy produce.
reported. for all the good it seems to be doing!
