Corsair XMS2 DHX PC2-6400 4GB Kit
Compression & Encoding Results
Published: 17th April 2008 | Source: Corsair | Price: £70.00 |

ViMark is the latest addition to the OC3D testing process and a relatively new benchmarking application in general. Designed to take the inaccuracies and guesswork out of measuring the time taken to encode video files, ViMark produces easily comparable and consistent results for encoding Windows Media, Quicktime, AVI and Gif files.





7-Zip is an open source winzip-style file compression utility that has the ability to compress and decompress many file formats including it's own .7z compression scheme. 7-Zip also comes complete with its own benchmarking utility for gauging the compression and decompression speed of the system that it is installed on.

looks nice 
shame (Afaik) that there's no amd motherboards that take DDR3 yet, i believe the best still only take DDR2
EDIT *hits head against wall*
i read the whole review, first to last word, and still thought it was DDR3
aye, nice though, definatly

Sweet review and those bad boys OC well
Sweet review man, I might get some of that as my 2 gig of XMS2 doesn't OC that well.
I can't believe how cheap memory is now, a few months ago when I built my rig my memory cost almost 50quid for 2 gigs. Now I've just got hold of 2 gig of ram for my EEE and that cost £20. Ridiculously cheap.
Nice one!

Unfortenately, my results are not that good. I am able to push them till 5-5-5-12@1050, 2.3V or 4-4-4-12@850, 2.3V. My rig is almost the same as the test setup.

Does happen though, different batches clock better than others.You sure you could only get 850 out of them at stock timings? thats a lot of volts to not get more than a 50mhz OC. If thats the case I would even go as far as calling them broken

My system won't even boot if I go beyond 4-4-4-12@850
I would have thought 5-5-5-15 or 5-5-5-18, dunno if that`d be any use.
