Corsair XMS PC3500 Review @ TheTechLounge

Published: | Posted By:

"As you saw from the benchmarks, PC3500 has a definite advantage over PC3200. While Corsair's PC3500, especially when utilizing dual channels, gives an impressive performance, I was quite disappointed that I couldn't overclock any further than 448 MHz over the rated 433 MHz. However, with the perfect ratio of timings and MHz, I am sure a little more raw speed could be squeezed out."
System memory has never had a ton of headroom for overclocking but every once in awhile you can find some modules that do better than others. When deciding what memory to buy look for modules with the lowest timings numbers rated at the speed you plan to be running your system at. (i.e. 250Mhz FSB get DDR500 etc..)
