Shocker

Recently having the PC 3500 DDR 434 made by PNY in my computer and having the ram over clocked to PC 4000 speeds running 505 MHz. This ram is surprisingly good in comparison to others. Timings where 2.5 3 3 8 at 505 Mhz. Pushing 6,780 MB/s read and 2,456 MB/s write with latency of  48.3 ns. This ram is now in my girls friends pc. Prices drop to $78.00 when on sale this is what I paid.

Now I am using the PC 4000 ram made by PNY. This ram comes with LCD displays to show temps and memory usage. Very cool looking ram but it?s the price and latency timings that I find to be immersive. Running at 540 MHz PC 4300 timings are 2.5 4 4 6 stable and seem to handle the temps with no problem. Starting latency timings are 2.5 4 4 6 and hold stable to pc 4300 or perhaps higher. Read speeds are benching 7,247 read 2,567 write latency of 41.08. Prices drop  when on sale to $100.00 per 512 this is what I paid.

I'm getting about 6,300 MB/s read & write with my OCZ @ DDR433. But this is with 1T timings & @ 2-3-2-5.

When I drop the 1T to 2T, then I get something like 5,300 MB/s read & write. :)

Yes, I agree.

1T is the best.

super the read and write speeds are not the same. write is always slower then read speeds. Might want to check with everest for memory benchmarks.

I just tested mine again and got 7,257 MB/s read and 2,578 write with 41.02 ns.

All i was saying is thats a good score for PNY ram. I was quite shocked.

T-Man use everest home and test your ram i would like to see more info on its performance. This wasnt a braging forum i started it was a info forum based on facts. so if you can tell us more on things like timings,speeds,MHz, ETC. on your ram it may help us determin how good that ram is doing as well.

I was referring to the SiSoftware Sandra Pro 2005. There Memory Bandwidth Benchmark is what I used.

Ram Bandwidth - Int. Buff'd iSSE2 6351 MB/s
Ram Bandwidth - Float Buff'd iSSE2 6314 MB/s

Numbers keep changing a little.  :)

What ever Sandra tells me. I'll look into it again & get the write speeds.

Oh, Sandra, can I have a word with you please ;)

Bye for now.

I've seen OC'ed Athlon 64's with PC4300 & PC4500 DDR Ram hit well over 10,000 MB/s easy.

Remember that the Athlon 64 & my loving Opterons :rolleyes:  have a built in memory controller, so you can get at least 3000 to 5000 MB/s more bandwidth than a P4 system.
