Corsair PC2-9136C5 Running 1200MHz at 4-4-4-12 2T Timings

Post by Apoptosis »

While testing memory kits for an upcoming article I found the Corsair PC2-9136C5 kit to do timings and frequencies that neither my 6400C3 or 8888C4 kit are able to do... Neither kit will run 1200MHz 4-4-4-12 2T with 2.5V on my 680i board, but the 9136 can and does with 100% stability... :shock: :shock:

Here are some numbers from my 2GB kit of Corsair PC2-9136 memory modules...

First the Test system.... X6800 overclocked to 400MHz FSB x 9 multi...

Everest Ultimate 2006 Test Results...

Sciencemark 2.0 and Sandra 2007 Test Results...

I'm really impressed with the kit, but very pissed off that it's doing better than my 6400C3's and 8888C4's... I know for a fact that the 9136C5 is fallout from 8888C4's so I guess I got a lucky kit or something.

oh and in case you are wondering the kit will do 3-3-3-8 1T at 800MHz in 1:1, so I tried that too...

The Everest Read Score went down, but write and copy stayed the same.

On Sciencemark 2 and Sandra 2007 the scores both dropped as did the games that I benchmarked, so 1200MHz C4 beats 800MHz C3.

Overall I'm impressed with the memory and what it can do... The scores are awesome and I hope you enjoy taking a peak at them.
