Testing Procedure:

All testing was done on a fresh install of Windows XP Professional build 2600 with Service Pack 2 and DirectX 9.0c. All benchmarks were completed on the desktop with no other software programs running. The 2:3 memory divider was used and the processor was left alone during system testing. All of the modules were run in dual channel for all of the testing and overclocking!
