Patriot Memory DDR2-1000 Offers Top Performance Reads At 8.6 GB/sec
Memory vendor Patriot Memory was a relative unknown here at THG. It sent us 512 MB memory modules labelled DDR2-1000 at the start of our testing. Surprisingly, they achieved the fast CL3.0 timing mode at standard input voltage levels (1.8 v). Like the Corsair RAM for ambitious PC freaks, these modules are the real deal at 500 MHz: They achieved a stunning maximum data transfer rate of 8.6 MB/sec while reading - the highest value we measured. We recommend these modules with no reservations.
