G.Skill F3-12800CL7D-4GBECO Reviewed on AMD

Chew* has a new review he has posted today at the TechREACTION forums. The kit on the review table was the G.Skill F3-12800CL7D-4GBECO, which as the part number implies is part of G.Skill’s new ECO line of memory geared towards ultra low voltage for added longevity and power savings.

Chew* mentions in the review that the sticks were tricky at first but after some trial and error, he was able to get some good results out of them.

I like those low voltages :)

very nice review Chew*
you use trackball for sure , i can't do same with my normal mouse :D

XMP-extended RAM for AMD? LOL! :D It would be better if Gskill would pass BEMP certification from AMD.

I told you man do not sleep on the trackball, I can stare into it and see the future, I can rub it for luck and if you roll the ball just right you can get faster results :rofl::ROTF:

It has other uses as well. When your kids are fighting with each other you can just take out the ball and huck it at them and they all hit the dirt and start acting civilized again :D

We finished reading the review
One of the first things she said when I was done reading the last words of the review was:
“Can we start to play ECO/785G again tomorrow?”

thanks for sharing

oh so Trackball is Multifunction Mouse :D
:ROTF::ROTF: i am still a young boy just 20 years old, :rofl:no kids here but i promise you i keep mine and will try in the future :D

So what's the consensus on these, are they decent OC'rs for 2x 2GB PC3-12800 parts?
Also if you under-clock them below stock, can you get tighter timings, & can they run on even less voltage?

I mostly want to run at stock or under-clock w/tighter timings....
But on the rare occasion that I game, a decent OC (not hard-core) would be nice too!

Not sure I'd have quite as much luck as others with a GA-H57M-USB3 though :(
I believe the memory controller on the Clarkdale's (I'm getting Core i3-530) reverts back to the Core micro-architecture.
And of course a lot depends on the board and it's BIOS....

Any thoughts/advice on this or other g.skill RAM greatly appreciated!

clearly you seem to have misread. This was tested on AMD. So for any info you want on how this ram does on amd check the link.

There are other reviews done with intel in the xtreme bandwidth section with the same ram.

I have posted in them...
Just curious about thoughts of users that have experienced it with Intel, but nevertheless are still subscribed to this thread.

Thanks.

Yep thats cool, intel isn't really my strong point, best off getting advice from those that know intel better.

Fair-enough thanks, don't suppose anyone here has seen any data points? Thanks.

Guess not, thanks :(

I lost my AMD know how! Help with GD70 and this RAM please!!!!!!

I miss the old TCCD/Toledo days I had :(
