That's one of the things that surprised me most. They didn't do this with a single 1GB stick, they did this with 3 2GB sticks. (Which is another argument against DDR2. 2GB sticks clock worth a crap).

actually the newer sticks are clocking alot higher now OCZ has a low volt blade set that clocks hella good. it can't even come close to matching my cheaper set of crucial value ram but they clock to well over 1200 as do the gskill pi 1200's and the corsair dominator 1066 kits are coming close as well

Really??? so 4gb kits usually clock less good then 2gb kits? I mean like significantly?

on DDR2 yes they do old school D9GKX/GMH could clock to upwards of 1400 CL5 while there is not a DDR2 2x2GB kit that could come close to that max on those is a single kit that can do 1300 CL5

wow never knew it could make such a difference!!! so in ddr3's case, say I get 3gb of crucials... should it clock significantly better than 6gb or is it negligeable?

I have the CAS4 1000Mhz Pis. I still haven't tested max CAS5 clocks tho.

Moot point tho, top of the line 2GB sticks still can't match the best 1GB sticks. My first set of 1200Mhz aXeRam did 1400Mhz CAS5. Wish 2GB sticks would do that.

When you compare the best DDR2 clocks, to the clocks on these Dominator GT's, it really is mind boggling how far ram has come in general, let alone how far DDR3 has progressed.

This is somewhat true for me. I have a 2x1GB pair of old Corsair CM2X1024-6400s that I can knock up to 920MHz and another 2x2GB pair of CM2X2048-6400s which have the same memory (only with double capacity, of course) and I can only bring it to like ~880MHz. :banghead:

If i could get my hands on 12Gb worth of Corsair Dominator GT DDR3 @ 2500+ Mhz binned, i would donate my q6600, striker extreme, 8800gtx, 2gb corsair 4-4-4-12 ddr2 based pc to a scout group.

those are low clocks on both...

no difference at all from my experience.

Holy shit, that is almost as fast as my Kuma!!!!

Benches like that dont have to stress test. Getting a snap shot is all it takes for recognition. Hell a CPU-Z validation is stress enough at those crazy speeds.

thats hella fast and at really good timings!

For the love of god please tell me you aren't serious.

That comment above is reason why I dont believe half the insane overclocks I see on the net.
