The fresh naming system for SDRAM is no taller founded on the number of clock cycles, surely if this was the case I would be reviewing PC133/PC150 memory. Contrary to apparently popular belief, DDR RAM is no different in design to SDR SDRAM. The deviations being information is transferred on together the increasing and decreasing sides of the clock cycle, a dissimilar sized DIMM slot is utilized, and the chipset requires to support DDR. This does not mean you can insert 184 pin DDR examples into 168 pin SDR DIMM ports or vice versa though.


The fresh naming system is founded on an apparently more exact statistic: the bandwidth. The bandwidth is got through multiplying the impressive frequency (which in the case of DDR is double the number of clock cycles) through the width of the memory and dividing the answer through the number of bits each byte, which is ever 8. You can utilize this method to function out the velocities of other memory, but beware RDRAM has 8 bit registers instead than the 64 bit width on SDRAM.

Well, is not the highest number going to lead to the highest function? Not necessarily. Computer2400 is basically only PC2100 that is guaranteed to accomplish 150Mhz. Functioning a system with a front side bus of 117Mhz is not ever attainable, and so the OCZ random access memory is just going to accomplish 150Mhz if the remins of the system is up to it. With a reputable producer similar to Crucial, hopefully velocities of over 150Mhz could be accomplished with the 133Mhz rated storage, thus competing with the OCZ example. Lets find out…


The nice-packaged Crucial memory too arrived with a multilingual booklet explaining set up, although it must be told this was not particular to the Computer2100 and extended all from EDO to RD RAM. In fact OEM manner, the OCZ example arrived in only an antistatic bag.


Just many of you will have listened of Crucial, as a part of the memory giant Micron. But what you do not familiar is that the examples OCZ sell are really created through Kingston, Micron and Infineon. Which means that together example could plausibly be from Micron.
