OCZ DDR2 PC2-9200 Reaper HPC Edition

Testing:

Intel Extreme X6800
MSI P965 Neo
2GB Corsair Dominator 8888
Asus 8600GT
Maxtor 80GB IDE133 HDD

Testing was done with the following software, Sisoft Sandra XI, Pcmark2005, Everest Home Edition and SuperPi.
Pcmark2005:



In Pcmark you can see various performance stats but we ran only the memory part of the test and here are the results. The Reaper is a tad slower in this test again compared to the others but the marginals are minimal.

SuperPi:



In SuperPi we always run the 8M test to really see if there is any performance difference on the ram kits. We got 7 seconds slower test results with the Reaper. I am still wondering if the board has something to do with this, but if I run the Corsair or Mushkin kits they run fine.

Overclocked:



By boosting the FSB a bit you can see that the SuperPi times get quite a bit lower. We were able to run this ram at 300 FSB by raising the voltage. It was not rock solid though as we had to reboot once in awhile. 290 FSB was rock solid with stock latency.

We lowered the latency a bit by lowering it from 5-5-5-18 to 5-5-5-15 at 280 FSB.

Conclusion:

Well the ram kit has performed stable throughout the whole test. We have been able to overclock it, and the new heatsink works. We have tested and felt the heatsinks to see if they do transfer any heat and they do. The memory was well packed and the only real con I can see is the price as they still sell for a somewhat high price. Performance wise they were similar to the other kits, maybe a tad slower but it is nothing you notice if you don't benchmark the kits. Overall a decent kit with a tad bit high price tag.

Pros:

+ Well packed
+ Stable performance
+ Ocz warranty

Cons:

- Price
- Performance


Current Real Time Pricing
