OCZ Flex II 4GB PC2-9200 DDR2 Memory Review
Test Setup
Without a doubt, Nvidia had one of the best DDR2 overclocking memory controllers with the 680i motherboard. The 780i motherboard I have is simply a 680i motherboard with PCIe 2.0 support and supports independent CPU and RAM overclocking making it a great DDR2 review platform. A spare HD 4850 was used with overclocked speeds of 800MHz on the core and 1100MHz on the memory. Memory cooling in all instances was a single 120mm fan in addition to the airflow from the E8400 heatsink. Since this was a 4GB kit, Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit was utilized with SP1 installed. To offer a comparison, OCZ PC2-6400 Platinum Rev 2 modules were used.
