A-Data PC-4000 DDR Reviewed

Another Article about DDR500 but this time is Corsair

Look at the overclocking section, it has poor results compare to A-Data PC4000

This article was Corsair, but again to my point about DDR500 high latency ram. The closest thing to a real world test was 3DMark2K1

250 FSB | 1:1 | DDR500 | 3-4-4-8
17979

250 FSB | 5:4 | DDR400 | 2-3-3-5
17964

The difference? Less than 1/10 of 1%. Now that is worth spending a bunch of $$ on!!

not only is oldfart right, but he is understating the fact that the 5:4 400ddr is only running a lame c2335.

what 400ddr cant run at least c2226?

i think the reviewer did that on purpose

I wasn't even going to mention that. If it were running 2-2-2-6, the DDR400 would have been faster than the DDR500 setup. Until you can get high DDR speed AND low latency, you are not getting anything special with this type of memory. To me, its nothing but a big scam.
