It's actually a lot of fun to own a Lenovo Thinkpad. Besides the impeccable build quality, unsurpassed reliability, a keyboard feel that's not repeated in any other brands, and not to mention its incredible battery life -- there's always those questions from friends and strangers alike that command a level of hilarity. "What Pentium do you have?" is actually a question that I've been asked many times in the past year or so, referring to my T400.
Crucial under its parent company Micron has been producing high quality, standard spec computer memory for more than 30 years. Although a latecomer to the performance marketplace, Crucial has not disappointed their fans and has built quite a name for its Ballistix line of memory over the last six years, beginning with their high speed DDR up through DDR2 and now DDR3. The Tracer series adds an interesting twist, that of LED activity lighting on the memory sticks themselves, useful for indicating memory utilization and also just for the bling factor. The memory I have for review today is the red version of Crucial's latest Ballistix Tracer series, in a 2x2Gb kit of PC3-12800 8-8-8-24.
We have to wonder, though; does Low Voltage and HyperX deserve to be in the same category? It seems a little conflicting. HyperX is all about power and Low Voltage is all about taking care of the environment and hugging trees.
Rund ein Jahr ist es her, als wir das letzte mal aktuelle DDR3-Triple-Channel-Kits in einem Roundup vorgestellt haben. Seit dem ist im Speicher-Segment so einiges passiert. Neben einigen Geschwindigkeitsrekorden, welche von diversen Herstellern aufgestellt wurden, hat sich aber auch die Breite der verfügbaren Kits stark erhöht. So schicken sich in diesem Roundup Speicherkits von A-Data, Crucial, GeIL und Mushkin an, die Gunst des Käufers zu gewinnen. Um einen möglichst breit gefächerten ersten Eindruck zu gewinnen, haben wir vier verschiedene Kits mit unterschiedlichen Taktraten und Timings im Vergleich. Wie sich die einzelnen Kandidaten schlagen, erfahrt ihr auf den folgenden Seiten.
Da wir mit unserem Sockel 1156 System schon länger auf ein 8 GB Kit umsteigen wollten, nutzen wir die Sommerpause, um ein passendes Kit zu finden. In der Regel suchen wir immer 1600 MHz Speicher, weil diese meist von der Preis/Leistung am interessantesten sind. Ein interessantes Kit von G.Skill ist uns sofort ins Auge gestochen, die ECO Serie DDR3-1600 mit 7-8-7-24 und nur 1.35V Spannung…
As if 2133MHz were not enough for a high-performance kit, there are some brands pushing the limits to the max in the memory section. Just about 6 months ago, some brands released 2200MHz kits, followed by 2400MHz and finally 2500MHz kits specially targeted at high-end enthusiasts and overclockers. The kit we are reviewing today is one of the fastest kits available in the market, and the fastest kit ever tested at Benchmark Reviews. The Patriot Viper II 'Sector 5' Edition is a 2500MHz 4GB kit, running with high binned ICs, and according to Patriot's homepage, this kit works with LGA 1156 Core i7 CPUs and possibly nothing else at the moment of writing this revision. Join Benchmark Reviews in a trip to discover how far we can push this kit, and analyze system's performance with extremely high frequencies.
Kingston have stuck with the same design on their packaging for quite some time now, giving you a clear view of the memory and the security sticker detailing the model number, size, speed and cas latency.
With all the excitement surrounding CES 2011 and new releases such as Intel's second generation Core chips like the i5-2500K that Shawn just reviewed, it can be easy to overlook updated revisions of existing products. Towards the end of November, OCZ announced revamped editions of their popular Blade, Platinum and Gold series memory. However between the holidays and upcoming CES this news may have slipped under the radar. Plus it's only been more recently that these versions have even started to show up at online retailers.
We've mentioned already a number of times, including in our OCZ Platinum XTE review of the 2000MHz DDR kit, because of there being no divider for 2000MHz DDR you have to adjust the very limited BCLK. What it ultimately means is a bit of a hit and miss experience with 2000MHz DDR memory. If it's good overclocking RAM, you'll be ok. If not, you could struggle to hit the default clocks due to the limited option in the BIOS.
Today we’re looking at some DDR3 memory from Patriot. An offering from their Gamer series, the G2 enhanced latency kit is aimed towards gamers seeking the best performance at the best price. Let’s take a closer look and find out if it’s as good as they say it is.
