@ ocinside.deIn this current OC review the CompuStocx PC3-10600 4GB DDR3 Dual Channel memory kit is extensively tested.
The review contains the performance of these modules and of course also the overclockability, which is compared with some other memory modules.
Memory modules without heat spreader are often not very well overclockable, because usually the module voltage has to be increased, in order to reach high overclocking results.
That inevitably produce a higher heat dissipation, which should be exhausted with memory heatsinks.
However, in the previous memory review Crucial showed with their RAM kit without heatspreader that one can also achieve good OC results without voltage increasement.
So the suspense continues how high this CSX DDR3 kit can be overclocked.
