Team Group's DDR2 Power: 667mhz 1g dual channel kit CL-3-4-4-8

[Onepagebook]

Well, time to play some DDR2? I believe that it is about the time.
It's no doubt that everyone all clearly understand " Micron D9 Fat-body IC "
is the best DDR2 by far. However, due to the fact that D9 fat-body is no longer produced; what
else we are going to expect? Today, I will bring this very powerful Team Group DDRII 1GB set
(512mb x 2 sticks Dual Channel kit) to every extreme user.


Model, speed, and part number:

PC5300 DDR2 667MHz 2*1GB 4-4-4-12 64*8 16 Chips TXDD2048M667HC3DC
PC5300 DDR2 667MHz 2*512MB 4-4-4-12 64*8 8 Chips TXDD1024M667HC3DC

detail specifications:

Available in 1GB and 2GB Dual Channel
PC2-5300 667MHz 3-4-4-8
64x8 DDR2 FBGA Chips
240pin, Non-ECC, Un-buffered DDR2 SDRAM DIMM
Aluminum Heat-spreader
6 Layers Ultra Low Noises Shielded PCB
Retail Package
1.8V - 2.2V
Lifetime Warranty

Pricing:
DDR2 667 2*512MB USD$120
DDR2 667 2*1GB USD$235.00

Now , let's see the RAM itself.
From the picture showing below, we can easily find out the difference between Team Group DDR 1
and DDR 2 by the color of heat spreaders. It's made by Alumium with silver color.



Label:



well, the most important part is here. I think you all know that logo and "D9"?



One thing that catch my eyes is the pcb Team Group used for their DDR2;
it is still the BP mill pcb.



ok, let 's see some basic stability benches:

************************************************** *****************************
Test bed:

CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo " E6600, Conroe " LGA775 ES
Motherboard: Intel I975Xpress Bad Axe, Bios 1073, ver: 304 (Conroe Supported)
PSU: Zippy 950w 3u single
Video card: BFG tech, 7900gtx single card
CPU cooler: Tuniq Tower 120
Memory: Team Group Xtreem series DDRII-667mhz CL3-4-4-8; 1.8v~2.2v
OS: Windows XP SP2
HD: Western Digital 150gb 10k rpm 16mb cache, AFHD single drive.

I have to be honest with everyone here, for DDR2 and Intel system, I am really a

completely noob. In order to give the unbias bench report, the results I post here are NOT from

so-called
"Cherry picked". Until the last moment I finished that ddr 727, 3-3-3-4; I really don't have any idea

if I can apply the parameters I set on the memset 1.1.

Now, let's see:
Directly give DDR 720+ with CL3-4-4-x super pi 32m completed with

vdimm set to auto under bios.



After that run, I was thinking if I can apply 3-4-3, so I did the most benches on that

timings included some 3d and prime actions.

super pi 32m:



3D mark:

06:



sp2004 latest version running for 1 hour 40 mintes errorless.



Finally, I thought I can finish all the benches , so initially this super pi 32m was for fun,
and it was totally out of my expectation when I set the tRtc as 3 then apply. It was amazing
I did not have the system locked up ; so I then go ahead and let it run through whole 32m until
it finished.

During the run to 11st iteration, pic took by digital camera:

Certainly, need to give the cpuz verified:



Certainly, everyone will doubt, how about 2gb kit dual channel? well, no prob, I will

do my best to bench with the same memory parameters as 1gb, 512mb x2 set.
This is really the one you definitely want to get on your list if you can't get Fat-body anymore




Thank you very much for reading.
