Thread: DDR333/400 memory Roundup

DDR333 - sense or nonsense? As part of our KT333 reviews, we were able, despite the memory of the asynchronous certainly be a benefit, gain operation - but only with a very good memory, so our conclusion. But what kind of RAM is good? We have current and compatible modules DDR333 invited twelve and tested for heart and kidney. Then gave OCZ, Crucial, Corsair, Mushkin, Nanya, Kingston, Kingmax and Samsung’s honor and they came to defend.

Whether or not religious wars, in a property are different Intel's and AMD's board architectures striking each other: the memory interface. While all CPUs Athlon Athlon C with a 133MHz FSB work, could the memory interface are indeed increased to 166MHz, but the limited front-side bus will continue to prevent a real practical benefits. Nevertheless, it can also make a good DDR333 sense, because for one of the storage system helps but ultimately a small speed advantage over the old versions.

Second, with high-quality RAM is a lot of room to over clock the system. When the Pentium 4 systems, which have a FSB of 400 or 533MHz, the memory can however also bursting with the bandwidth and thus provide the necessary data to the CPU. To this circumstance, we have the memory to two different platforms driven to excel, to provide each person with the information they need in making a purchasing decision.

Overall hereby expected all major price categories are represented. Since this is consistently branded modules, we have allowed ourselves, the SPD information of each memory module brings on a small EPROM with him to read and check for accuracy.
