Aeneon XTune 2GB DDR3-1600 Dual Channel Memory Kit
May 27, 2008

The Basics:

Of all the Aeneon DDR2 and DDR3 kits we have reviewed so far, the appearance has been fairly constant. Other than the obvious differences between DDR2 and DDR3, the only thing I noticed is that the DDR2 modules have had a green PCB, while the DDR3 modules have had a blue PCB.

The slick black heatspreader features a small Aeneon logo in the upper right corner on each side, and on the left you will either find an XTune logo printed in large stylized letters or a data label.


The image below takes a closer look at one of these data labels, which provides information regarding the capacity, speed, timings, and other bits of manufacturing data.

While I will admit that I can't really see it in the image below, what is supposed to be conveyed is that the heatspreader is well attached to the memory modules. The thermal tape provides a uniform bond between each chip and the heatspreader, so heat transfer will be about as good as it is going to get. I would assume that this kit should stay pretty cool anyway, considering that it can run at 1600MHz with only 1.5V while most other kits require 1.8V to hit the same speeds.
