Platforms with DDR3 SDRAM support are already available in the market. So, it is high time we performed a comparative test session of DDR3 SDRAM against DDR2 SDRAM. The main goal of our today’s investigation is to find out what memory technology is more suitable for today’s computer systems, and what prospects each of them has ahead.

So, we do not expect DDR3 SDRAM to work wonders in complex benchmarks and real applications either.

Despite the frustrating results our DDR3-1425 system showed in Everest, it still manages to outperform similar platforms with DDR2 SDRAM in PCMark05 and CPU subtests of 3DMark06 benchmarking suite. However, it is more of an exception, than a rule.
