OCZ PC2-8500 nVidia SLI Edition Review @ VirtualHideout

Virtual-Hideout reviews the OCZ PC2-8500 2×1GB nVidia SLI Edition memory kit and writes:

Well overclocking memory it’s not, unless you want to juice it up for not that much of a gain. However it’s already rated for an impressive 1066Mhz so you have to expect that it’s already pretty much maxed out. If it wasn’t, it would be OCZ’s new 1150MHz memory kit, right? It’s more breath taking in a review to take a 800MHz kit up to 1100MHz then it is a 1066Mhz to 1100MHz. Hence the reason for little overclocking drama.

What this kit does do however is deliver an impressive combination of exclusive good looks, EPP integration, and a high performance 1066MHz. The required 2.1v for 1066MHz operation is lower than most so that will help it run cooler. I think OCZ has done a great job with this kit and delivering it right on time with the launch of the new NVIDIA SLI 680i chipset. If you’re looking for a solid high performance memory kit to use with your new NVIDIA SLI 590 or 680i chipset board, I have no problems with recommending this OCZ PC2-8500 NVIDIA SLI Edition DDR2 Memory Kit.
