Samsung DDR2-533 PC4200 Memory Review

Here is some more memory action from PCStats. Samsung made great F die chips for low latency. How do they run for DDR2?

“DDR2 RAM allows manufacturers to clock the memory needed by today’s cutting edge computer systems much higher than regular DDR, with less heat, and less voltage. So far this applies to just Intel chipsets (i915p, i925x), but speculation is that AMD will be getting into the game later in the year. Talk about the best of both worlds At the moment, if you intend to upgrade your system with DDR2 memory, you will have to upgrade to an Intel i915p or i925x based socket 775 Pentium 4 motherboard. As Samsung are one of the world’s largest memory manufacturers, it’s no surprise that it already has its DDR2 modules in the hands of test labs. The two 256MB DDR2 modules we are testing in this review make use of Samsung K4T56083QF-GD5 DDR2 DRAM, which is rated to run at 533 MHz, with timings of 4-4-4 and a voltage of 1.8V.”
