OCZ Ships Memory Modules with Ultra-Low Latencies

**MIG-31** · Jan 31, 2004, 09:07 AM

"OCZ Technology, a well-known memory specialist, today announced its new memory modules that do not boast with extreme clock-speeds, but feature ultra-low latencies not available on the vast majority of competing solutions.

The majority of memory modules makers nowadays aggressively promote their products with extreme clock-speeds that not only exceed DDR specifications, but surpass this year’s fastest DDR-II memory at 533MHz. However, memory latencies also play a very important role in actual system performance, sometimes they appear to be even more important than clock-speeds of memory chips. Unfortunately, it is pretty hard to find RAM sticks with really aggressive timings nowadays, though, the demand for such products definitely exists and OCZ Technology wants to address it with its new OCZ PC-3200 Platinum Limited Edition EL DDR modules."

If you push more than 3.5V into BH6 chips (Yes you read right, 3.5V) they are easily as good, if not better than BH5 with the same amount of voltage applied.
