Corsair Memory Twin2X 1024A-5400UL DDR2 Memory

Performance Summary & Conclusions:

Corsair's 1024A-5400UL Twin2X memory kit is targeted as a low latency product, as can be seen from our testing at 3-2-2-8 timings (slightly better than specifications). This memory is rated for 2.1V, quite a bit higher than default DDR2 voltage. However, even at 2.1-2.2V the memory really doesn't even get warm, the only potential issue would be to check and make sure your motherboard will allow you to set that voltage (just about every quality enthusiast motherboard will).

This memory was able to easily exceed it's rated specifications, surpassing the rated DDR2-675 MHz and making it all the way to DDR2-733 MHz rock stable. Timings did have to be loosened some over the course of overclocking to maintain stability, but the increase in FSB more than compensated for these changes. If this isn't enough speed for you, Corsair sells a TWIN2X1024-8000UL kit that is rated to run at a whopping DDR2-1000 MHz!

As with all of Corsair's memory, the 1024A-5400UL Twin2X kit comes with a lifetime warranty. For any warranty info or technical support just visit Corsair's website and they would be more than happy to help you out.
