G.SKILL F1-4000USU2-2GBHZ PC4000 Review

Value and Conclusion

  • G.SKILL's F1-4000USU2-2GBHZ PC4000 Kit is sold for $245, which I find is a really good price for 2 GB of overclocking memory. Some 2x512 MB kits cost up to $300.
  • Great overclocker, for 1 GB sticks
  • Nice looking heatspreaders
  • Needs only 2.6V to reach best performance
  • Competitive price
  • Lifetime warranty
  • No CL2 at 200 MHz
  • Timings could be a bit tighter (like memory with TCCD, which is available only on 512 MB sticks)
If you want to have 2 GB for Photoshop, video editing, Battlefield 2, Quake 4 etc. and want to overclock to high memory frequencies - the G.SKILL F1-4000USU2-2GBHZ PC4000 are the way to go. It does not perform like memory with Samsung TCCD, which usually runs up to 290 MHz at 2.5-4-3-X, but TCCD is only available on 512 MB sticks.
Having 2 GB of memory means putting and end to stuttering while loading and a smoother game play experience.
