OCZ DDR2 PC2-9200 Reaper HPC Edition
Even though DDR3 is slowly coming along we still decided to put out a DDR2 review as they still perform as well as DDR3 ram. Ocz sent us a sample of their latest Reaper kit. Other reviews have praised this ram kit and given it very good reviews so we look forward to sharing our thoughts with you readers about the performance here. We will compare the ram vs a Corsair kit and vs a Ocz kit tonight.
About Ocz:
Entering the memory market in August 2000, OCZ Technology was built around the determination to manufacture the best high speed DDR and RDRAM. OCZ was founded by enthusiasts, for enthusiasts, and our commitment to the end-user has not digressed. OCZ Technology has been an innovator in many areas.
We were the first manufacturer to make Dual Channel optimized memory available to the public, which originally took advantage of nVidia's Twinbank or Dual DDR architecture, found in their nForce chipset.

We have now taken that technology and tailored it for the Canterwood, and Granite Bay chipset's. OCZ developed and was the first to implement ULN technology, which has been a critical element in our manufacturing process for some time.
We at OCZ diligently work to improve communication with CPU and motherboard chipset manufacturers prior to the release of their products. Only in this manner can we fine-tune our memory's SPD settings, ensuring a synergistic relationship between the memory module, memory controller, and microprocessor. In today’s rapidly evolving semiconductor industry, such communication is not simply research, but a necessary component of our manufacturing process.

The new heatsinks on the ram have a bit different design from the older OCZ heatsinks. The heatsink itself is connected with heatpipes to a heatsink mounted above the ram. I think design works quite well, the heat is transfered from the memory to the heatsink, the heat does not stay on the heatsink but is transfered through heatpipes to the top heatsink which means a more stable and well performing ram stick.
On each stick there is a sticker which tells you what type of ram it is along with the latency and PN number. Do not remove this sticker or you will void your warranty.

Here are a few more random shots of the ram. The ram is a bit higher than standard ram sticks so you better check that they will fit in your case or on your motherboard.
