CSX Diablo3 PC3-16000 (DDR3 2000) 2GB kit
3D Game Results

Call of Duty 4 is a stunning DirectX 9.0c based game that really looks awesome and has a very full feature set. With lots of advanced lighting, smoke and water effects, the game has excellent explosions along with fast gameplay. Using the in-built Call Of Duty features, a 10-minute long gameplay demo was recorded and replayed using the /timedemo command a total of 5 times. The highest and lowest FPS results were then removed, with an average being calculated from the remaining 3 results.
Crysis is without doubt one of the most visually stunning and hardware-challenging games to date. By using CrysisBench - a tool developed independently of Crysis - we performed a total of 5 timedemo benchmarks using a pre-recorded demo designed to stress the CPU and Memory subsystem. To ensure the most accurate results, the highest and lowest benchmark scores were then removed and an average calculated from the remaining three.
Quake 4 is a game built on the Doom 3 engine. Benchmarking was performed using Quake4Bench and a custom timedemo recording. The benchmark was set to run a total of 5 times, with Quake4Bench automatically calculating an average result at the end of the run.
Unreal Tournament 3 is the highly anticipated game from Epic Games and Midway. The game uses the latest Unreal engine, which combines fast gameplay along with high quality textures and lighting effects. All benchmarks were performed using UTbench to create a bot match on the DM-BioHazard map. As usual, all benchmarks were performed 5 times, with the highest and lowest results being removed and an average calculated from the remaining three.
Results Observations
Well, the above scores confirm my suspicions. Under the skin, the Ballistix and Diablo kits are identical, scoring pretty much exactly the same.

Nice review dude. Hopefully these will his the UK soon. Its about time that we got some real cheap performance DDR3.
Wow what a nice piece of kit with an equally attractive price. Excellent review as always webbo 
That stuff is bargain basement cheap! DDR3 for the masses.
I think you were overly harsh giving the packaging 6, all my ram has come in blister packs from corsair, cellshock to ocz...

It wasn't just the blister pack. The paper insert was exactly that - paper. The printing on the ram modules also looked cheap. I had to mark it like I saw it I'm afraid BUT and its a big BUT...
Who cares what the packaging is like when it comes in at a thrid of the cost of equivelent ram!

What version of bios do u use on the Striker 2, the latest 0704?
The XFX 790i Ultra was used for this test.
Where can I buy this RAM?
I may have to eat part of your PC if you do not tell me. I may be a vegtarian but silicom is not MEAT
If these are less than £140 then that is cheaper than the OCZ plantinum EBW PC3-16000 too.

I was on the way then Webbo Metal dentures in hand.
I'm kinda crabby because I've been waiting for parts from WCUK (out of stock poor chaps) for my build and the modding has gone cold turkey. So I'm buying up the extra funkiness for my build.
I've become so deranged I was contemplating a Killer K1

Killer NC = waste of money imo for any benifits it provides - better to spend the extra dosh you have on more ram - bigger/faster HD's

Still waiting for these to hit the uk, anyone shed any light on it.
Still no availability in UK.
However I had to RMA these sticks back to CSX as one started producing errors. I have updated the review to take into account the amazing turn around and service CSX provide.
Read the update on the conclusion if you are interested.

That is a damn nice kit. I got my 1800Mhz OCZ's for £140 but that was a good 4-5 months ago, but it's nice to see other manufactures helping to drive down the price.
