SubZeroTech has posted a new Review "Geil Platinum PC4000 2 x 512mb".
Just a short while ago I reviewed the Geil Golden Dragon PC3500 dual channel kit. As you may know the kit wowed me with the new module design and overall packaging quality and module appearance. The Golden Dragon series in my opinion is one of the premier series of memory modules available today. However, at the time those modules were limited to an overclock of about 240MHz on my Pentium 4 875 system. Now GEIL has done it again with their new Platinum DDR500 series. These modules, unlike the Corsair DDR500 modules I recently reviewed feature a CAS latency of 2.5/7-4-4 in contrast to the Corsair 3/8-4-4. What this means is speedier response and perhaps more rich bandwidth. And of course GEIL doesn?t disappoint with some spectacular packaging and knockout good looks (the platinum name comes from the Platinum heat spreaders installed on the modules!).Read more
