DDR2 memory tests, which we have performed earlier, showed that its higher latency is exactly the reason why it gets defeated by the regular DDR SDRAM. However, now the situation is changing. The leading memory manufacturers offer DDR2 modules with improved timings, which make DDR2 look completely different from what it used to be.
We would like to introduce to you a new 2GB CompactFlash memory card from Pretec belonging to the new generation of fast compact flash media. In this review we will compare it against the most widely spread solutions with the same storage capacity from Transcend and PQI. Find out how much faster these babies are turning out today!
Today we would like to introduce to you one more memory manufacturer – Patriot. We will take a close look at their memory products and perform some unprecedented overclocking experiments notching the top of 285MHz. Want to get a PC4560 piece for your system? Then check out our roundup now!
We will take a look at 16 compact flash memory cards today. These storage media have already invaded the market and are actively used in many fields. But what card would be the best choice for a professional photographer? Our extensive roundup will help you find it out now!
We have just tested a very interesting device in our lab, which doesn’t have any analogues in the IT world yet. OCZ DDR Booster allows significantly increasing the memory voltage without modifying the mainboard in any way. If you are an overclocker, you will simply love this device!
If you’re watching closely the events of the PC market, you should have noticed that the term “DDR2” has been used more frequently. So, I think it will be really interesting to know how this second generation differs from the previous one, what its advantages and shortcomings are. In other words, let’s try to figure out why the industry needs to take this memory type up.
Memory prices again appeared the No.1 topic for dicussion this month. Besides that, we would also like to tell you more about the new production technologies, overclocking kits from OCZ and other manufacturers and more!
Memory market seems to have gone crazy this month. Prices are jumping up and down, the competition in the field of high-speed memory modules became really tense. Besides, DDR2 is about to come out. Read more about the memory news in our monthly coverage!
Memory latency settings give rather moderate impact on performance, but even the tiny effect is considered as something very important by the majority of PC enthusiasts. Typically, memory modules with aggressive timings cost pretty lot, but maybe there is a way to improve speed by finding out the best combination of settings, even though they are not very aggressive? This is what OCZ Enhanced Bandwidth technology is all about. Find it out whether it works!
Our market has not yet got used to the memory modules marked as DDR500. Nevertheless, there are quite a few products in the market already, so that we decided to carry out a comparative test session. We managed to get the corresponding products from six memory makers, such as Corsair, GeiL, Hynix (original), Kingston, Transcend and Simpletech.
Overall, February was an example of the slow beginning of the year with a low demand. The prices may have fallen lower, if the memory makers hadn’t switched to demand-enjoying flash and started playing with DDR2. More news on the memory market as usual in our monthly coverage!
The new year has started and the new round of cut-throat competition in the memory market started too. as usual, we report about the latest news in this field.
