not bad but i hate to think how much OCZ will charge for these modules, i think i'd rather take my chances with gskill or similar
Any word on how tight they can run?
I wonder how fast/tight these sticks will go, someone please post a review :slobber:
also any word on price yet?
Press release was released today so it may be some time before we see any reviews about it. Anyone from OCZ care to comment? Andy? Tony? Anyone?
They say really only for the DFI NF4 at these speeds and with a really good memory controller, maybe 2.5-4-3-7-1T over 300 but not guaranteed at those timings. These guys are the cream of the crop of the Samsung tcc* line. Out next week.
"At the extreme speed of 625MHz, the OCZ PC-5000 Platinum is still capable of achieving blistering timings of 3-4-4-10!"
Not exactly blistering.....more like the slackest timings you would ever want to run at.....
Marketing
Tccd?
i am thinking $350
not to shabby, but now OCZ's tccd has like 5 different speed binned stages
EDIT: that is, if its TCCD
i think soQuote:

i'm not too sure it is TCCD, i mean knowing its in such short supply and about to be discontinued it doesnt make any sence to me to use it in a new product not even to market yet, perhaps an OCZ rep can shed some light on this, although on the other hand what else could it be?
i am pretty certain it is Hynix. Wan't that what ryan benched at 7xx with?
I thought TCCD being discontinued was just a rumor?Quote:

more or less the same though. There is still plenty tccd in the markets non the less.
What the hell are you talking about?Quote:

They are TCCD or Hynix B.
Can't be Hynix B.
They could (Hynix B reach 320 Mhz @ 3-4-4-10 easy), but most probably they are TCCD (also because of DFI nF4 Special... Hynix don't give the max on DFI).Quote:

Perhaps few selected TCC5 (and just because TCCD are finished) because actually I don't think TCC5 can perform like that in general.Quote:

i'm suprised an OCZ rep hasnt been on yet to confirm / deny this
They are Samsung, period. Everyone from Ryan on down at OCZ has told me this.
When you order 4800 or 5000 you get either all TCC5 (latest die/rev) or All TCCD (latest die/rev) TCCD ic's are spec'ed to ddr500 where TCC5 ic's are spec'ed to 466 theoretically, but as OCZ tests and bins the ic's, they are finding that a good percentage of each make the cut. The yields are improving. I wouldn't be surprised if they both come off the same run at Samsung and are just marked arbitrarily. Bottom line is that once they are put on a stick of ram, they are all the same ic as they would be also in dual packs. They don't mix tcc5 and tccd on the same set.
I already reviewed TCC5 (although I cant link to the review....), they were on normal PCB and were pratically as good as TCCD on BP.... I have three pairs of TCC5 BTW;).
all 5 as good?
I'm really looking forward to seeing how these sticks do, OCZ's high-end offerings are almost always something to write home about ;).
OCZ has so many stages of binned TCCx right now, that this stuff is likely to be the cream of the cream of the cream. Should be very good stuff paired with a good processor (or rather, a good memory controller).
They were pretty much within 3MHz +/-... So they were not varying much compared to all other RAM's I tested (thats a lot;) :p: )
TCCD comes and goes, i told you all this weeks ago. TCC5 is just as good as long as its binned properly.
We use both and yes the 5000 could be TCC5.
