Results:

For testing this product, I used the following test setup:

Motherboard: ASUS M2N32-SLI Motherboard
CPU: AMD AM2 3500+ CPU
PSU: SilverStone
ST60F Modular SLI Power Supply
Video Cards: 2 x EVGA 7900 GT Video Cards
Hard Drives: Seagate 80GB SATA Drive
Drive: Plextor PX-712A DVD±R/RW Drive

Memory: Corsair PC2-8500 DDR2 Memory
Sound Card: Creative Audigy 2 ZS Sound Card



Overclocking:

Please note that in order to find the maximum stable overclock, I increased the memory voltage to 2.3 using the default timing of 5-5-5-15. I started at the default speed of 1000MHz DDR2 and slowly increased until I hit 1100MHz. I found 1100MHz DDR2 (275Hz x 4) to be stable when both running Prime95 and games. Relaxing the memory timing a little, though, will result in even higher speeds. Please keep in mind that these overclocking results will vary from module to module and system to system.

Below are the results at the overclocked speed of 1100MHz DDR2 (275Hz x 4).
