Thread: G. Skill DDR3-1600 RAM

The trend in DDR3 memory for a long time knew only one way, and was higher clock speeds and better latency. It is found in most setup, with DDR3 memory only a small performance increment, if one wanders over DDR3 1600 MHz. And at extremely high speeds play a diminishing role latencies. The new ECO series is G. Skill now the other directions in the non-clock rates up further screwed, but the excitement of the modules down into. The G. Skill modules are ECO 1600 MHz and 1333 MHz available in. Dual channel kits are available with 2x2 or 4x2 GB modules in different timings.



The modules of G. Skill ECO series are more mainstream area located in what the low voltage hardly surprising in view. Most current DDR3 modules will be operated with 1.5V or more. High-end modules often need a voltage of 1.65 V to meet their specifications. The G. Skill ECO modules are operating at low temperature and stable development have all little tension on the memory controller cause before. Of course, the tension of the G. Skill modules also increase. They can also operate with 1.5V. However, this results in the concept of the ECO modules somehow a little absurd, to which we come to speak in the area of overclocking.

G. Skill comes with the ECO modules new paths and completed its lineup in another direction. In addition to the popular mid range modules Trident, the high-end modules Trident and Overclocking modules G. Skill PI , now come to the G. Skill ECO series. This is mainly to low temperatures and rather less about power consumption. The ECO modules reached us at 1600 MHz just warm to 37.4 degrees. The savings in electricity consumption between 1.35 and 1.5 volts are not really very relevant (1-3 watts) and may play in a 24 / 7 system, the power consumption is trimmed to a minimal role.
