Overclocking

When I was overclocking these modules, they were quite touchy. 1 MHz more decreased the system stability to unusable. I did manage to get some good Overclocking done with this ram.

TimingsMHzStable
2-3-2-6200Yes
2-3-2-6218Yes
3-3-3-8267Yes
3-3-3-8287Memtest 86+ Stable, Seems to create instability within the Graphics Card.

Conclusion

Some people think these modules are just another set of XMS Pro's but that’s not it, they're something more. 1T command rates, 2GB, 2-3-2-6... Is your mouth drooling yet? You might want to clean the puddle up :P before you fall over.

If you looking at 2GB Kits Right now and you haven't even considered these Modules, you’re missing out on them!

These modules are the modules you want for gaming, they have the "Bling Bling" and they have the Performance, I have been playing many games whilst having these modules installed and they are way faster at loading then any others I have seen, in fact so fast that I have already started a Counter-Strike Source Match before anyone else has joined.


Pros (+):
  • XMS Heat spreader
  • LED Activity lights
  • Can do 267MHz at 3-3-3-8
  • Run SPD Standard at 2-3-2-6
  • Rated at PC 3500!
  • Speedy, on all software and games
  • No requirement for a high priced Mother Board to run it at Stock Speeds (PC3500)
Cons (-):
  • Ram is a slight be tall, some people might have to think if they will fit in with their HSF
  • Ram really doesn't like the extra MHz's when it gets to the high 260's and the low 270's, but this ram was not made for Overclocking
