Kingston Technology raises the bar and launches their certified 2400MHz kit. Although kits like Patriot Memory’s Sector 5 have come close at 2250mhz, it’s the first time that you’ll find a kit tested and validated right off the shelf by INTEL themselves. That means they’ll run rock solid at that speed as long as you have a board that supports it because that’s basically overclocked anyway as most boards run stock in the 1333 – 1600MHz range. The full press release is posted below and you’ll find the rest of it after the jump…

Fountain Valley, CA — March 15, 2010 — Kingston Technology Company, Inc., the independent world leader in memory products, today announced it has developed the fastest Intel-certified memory in the world.
