Review @ Virtual-Hideout
Zitat
Well, I'm not going to sugarcoat this conclusion. This is a basic 800mhz @ 5-5-5-12 @ 1.9v value memory kit with some fancy heat spreaders and nothing more. I whole heartedly think it's not worth the effort to even bother trying to overclock them. Not when you really gotta crank the voltages just to squeeze some sap from the tree.

[...]Ok, so to wrap it up: Buy them if you like the looks of them, but don't buy them for overclocking or high performance. With lack timings of 5-5-5-12 and a higher than average stock voltage rating (1.9v vs. 1.8v), I can't really recommend a purchase of them. With just a quick search I found better kits for the same or less money.

If these kits could've at least scored something like 4-4-4-12 at 2.0v or even 2.1v than it would be a different story. However my RST Pro2 doesn't lie and anything over 820mhz was not stable at up to 2.3v. I didn't give them more than that because honestly I shouldn't have too without seeing something in return.

So, 800mhz @ 5-5-5-12 @ 1.9v is what you should expect and no more. If that'll do you, and you like the look of these kits, then head over to the Mushkin website and pick up some of their new EM2-6400 memory modules today.
