OCZ Technology PC2-8000 Platinum Edition 4GB DDR2 Kit
March 18, 2008

The Basics:

This 4GB DDR2 memory kit is made up of two 2GB DDR2 modules sporting platinum colored XTC (Xtreme Thermal Convection) heatspreaders, as shown in the below left image.

On one side of each module is a tiny label that provides basic information such as the part number, speed, capacity, type of module, and the timings.


Taking a close look at the top of the module reveals that there is no visible space between the XTC heatspreader and the memory chips. While some may question the necessity of heatspreaders, if they aren't even making contact they can't cool anything, so these are at least well installed.

The OCZ Technology PC2-8000 Platinum Edition 4GB DDR2 Kit was installed in a system with the following components for this review:

» Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 processor
» Gigabyte P35C-DS3R motherboard
» eVGA 7900GTO PCI Express graphics card
» OCZ Technology ProXStream 1000W power supply

» OCZ 1333MHz DDR3 2GB (2x1GB)
