| G. Skill F1-4800DSU2-1GBFR PC4800 1GB Dual Channel Kit - Page 2 of 3 |
Testing:
Testing was performed using the following equipment:
DFI LANParty nF4 SLI-DR
AMD Athlon 64 3000+ Winchester
2 x 6600GT video cards
1 x Western Digital Raptor HD
2 x 200GB Seagates in RAID 1
BIOS settings and timings are as follows:
BIOS version 510-2 (Oskar Wus modified BIOS)
CPU multiplier x 8
Dram Frequency Set (MHz): 200MHz or 1:1
Command Per Clock (CPC): Disabled 2T
CAS Latency Control (Tcl): 2.5
RAS# to CAS# delay (Trcd): 4
Min RAS# active Time (Tras): 8
Row precharge time (Trp): 4
Row cycle time (Trc): 7
Row refresh cycle time (Trfc): 13
Row to Row delay (Trrd): 2
Write recovery time (Twr): 2
Write to Read delay (Twtr): 2
Read to Write delay (Trwt): 2
Refresh (Tref): 3072
Write CAS Latency (Twcl): 1
For the purpose of comparison, I found a few other 1GB kits to throw on the chopping block. First we have another set of G. Skill, model F1-3200DSU2-1GBLE. This set of G. Skill LE is also Samsung 440, K4H560838F-TCCD. Also I found a set of Corsair XMS3200 Platinum Series (XMS3208v1.2) to throw in the mix.
For the purpose of stability all three sets were put through rigorous testing which included Prime95, Memtest86, 3DMark05 and Super PI after passing all tests, game stability was also tested.
This first chart shows all three sets of memory at 300MHz using SiSoft Sandra 2004. All modules were stable at this speed using the 2.5-4-4-8 2T settings.
The next chart shows all three modules again using the same timings, this time tested with Everest Home Edition for read/write speeds.
As you can see from the above charts all three modules perform at nearly the same speed at this setting. In this next section we look at overclocking and see how high we can take these modules and how closely the bandwidth and read/write speeds compare to one another.
