Crucial Ballistix PC3-12800 2GB DDR3 Kit
Synthetic Memory Results
Published: 24th January 2008 | Source: Crucial | Price: £154 |

Sisoft Sandra is a synthetic benchmark utility capable of reporting and benchmarking a wide range of system components. For the Crucial Ballistix PC3-12800 kit we run both the Memory Bandwidth and Memory Latency benchmarks 3 times to ensure accuracy of results.




Everest is in many ways similar to Sisoft Sandra. Focusing mainly on Software and Hardware information reporting, Everest also comes with a benchmark utility suitable for testing the read, write and latency performance of the memory subsystem.

nice review 
its worth noting that crucial's DDR2 kits now come with the same style heatspreader, no clips and only stuck on (requiring blow torch to remove)
i've got the 8500DDR2 ballistix kit and they look identical to these except for the DDR3 bit on the logo
also the 8500 review cannot be found on the front page under memory

where abouts did you find it for £154? i can only find it for £272 in komplett? and £284.34 in crucial :/
When you say other PC12800 kits have nearly hit 2000mhz.. Which one was that??
I remember the Patriot PC15000 getting very close.

I had an inkling about an OCZ DDR3 review but couldn't remember what speed it was or what it hit overclocked..
Wasn't having a go or anything but was just curious which kit hit so close to 2000mhz from 1600mhz
anyone any ideas on where to get the product for the price listed in the review?

Edit: Going on what Jim just said.. Found it: http://www.shop.bt.com/productview.a...150,4294953324
Thats 1gb though not a pair.
found the 8500 review on the memory section lol, didn't realise the adverts were only at half the page lol. deceptive that is, makes you think thats the bottom (thus the page change and loss of review)
hehe cheers anyway
loving my crucial ram, just wish i had to time to tweak it all up
