The Test System

Before we take a look at the performance numbers, lets take a brief look at the test system that was used. All testing was done using a fresh install of Windows 7 Professional 64-bit and benchmarks were completed on the desktop with no other software programs running.

  • Intel Core i7 4770k Quad-Core Haswell CPU
  • Stock Socket 1150 CPU Cooler
  • 8GB ADATA XPG V2 2400MHz Memory
  • GIGABYTE Z87X-UD4H Motherboard
  • EVGA GTX 570 Classified Video Card
  • 2x 120GB Samsung 840 Pro SATA III 6Gb/s SSDs in RAID 0
  • Thermaltake Pure Power 680w Power Supply
  • Windows 7 Professional Operating System

Intel Z87/LGA1150 Platform

The Intel Z87 platform that we used to test these memory modules was running the GIGABYTE Z87X-UD4H motherboard with BIOS version F7 that came out on 08/05/2013. The processor used, the Intel Core i7 4770k, was just using the stock frequency of 3.5GHz with turbo boost enabled, which can boost it up to 3.9GHz.

Up next I will run a couple benchmarks against these modules to see how they perform to ADATAs claims.
