Hi there


The crazy Samsung memory which some members are seeing as high as 2700MHz and I myself have achieved 2400MHz were offering at a crazy weekend only deal price:-



Samsung Green 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C11 1600MHz 30nm Dual Channel Kit (MV-3V4G3D/US) **WEEKEND SPECIAL** @ £43.99 inc VAT

MY-017-SA_400.jpg


These Samsung Green kits are a world first using 30nm technology. This results in lower power usage, extended life and ultra low profile making them compatible with all DDR3 solutions including small form factor.

Boost performance with Samsung genuine PC memory. As the number one memory supplier in the world, Samsung DRAM modules are made with 100% Samsung components. With the 30nm-Class DDR3 1600MHz Extreme Low Voltage UDIMM module from Samsung, you can get faster speed and greater reliability from your computer while consuming less energy. Use Samsung UDIMM DDR3 memory to replace or increase the memory in your desktop or server. This Samsung DDR3 memory module employs 30-nanometer technology and, as a result, uses up to 65 percent less power and is only two-thirds the size of conventional 60-nanometer memory modules. This version of Samsung DDR3 has a 8 GB capacity (2 DRAM modules, each with 4 GB).

The other major advantage of these modules is their overclocking ability, in our own testing we achieved 2400MHz with CAS 11-11-11-28-1T timings with just 1.55v resulting in staggering levels of performance.

Features:-
- Model Name: MV-3V4G3D/US
- Main Board: INTEL/AMD
- System: DESKTOP/SFF
- System Type: DDR3
- M/B Chipset: INTEL P67, Z68, Z77, X79 & AMD Chipsets
- CAS Latency: 11-11-11-28 1N
- Capacity: 8GB (4GBx2)
- Speed: DDR3-1600 (PC3-12800)
- Test Voltage: 1.25-1.55V
- Registered/Unbuffered: Unbuffered
- Error Checking: Non-ECC
- Type: 240-pin DIMM Low Profile
- Warranty: Lifetime

Overclocking Features (Not Guaranteed)
- 1600MHz (7-8-8-24 1N) @ 1.40v
- 1866MHz (9-9-9-27 1N) @ 1.40v
- 2000MHz (9-10-10-28 1N) @ 1.45v
- 2133MHz (10-10-10-28 1N) @ 1.45v
- 2400MHz (11-11-11-28 2N) @ 1.50v
- In our own in house testing we were able to achieve all the above clock speeds on an Asus X79 platform with 4x4GB modules (16GB total) SuperPI Stable too, 32M

Only £43.99 inc VAT.

This is a great price for memory, when you factor in that these are the most overclockable modules on the market right now due to their 28nm production, this price is an absolute steal!! :D
 
So tempted...

What kind of benefit would I see using these at say 2400mhz over my current vengeance modules at 1600mhz?

Bigger benchmarks scores, maybe 1-2fps in games. If you use an application which is intensive on memory then potentially more. But in honesty overclocking memory gives minor gains, its more of just a fun way of tweaking your system for some nice benchmarks and the E-peen of saying I got memory for sub £50 which does over 2000MHz. :D

Gibbo, if I installed three of these in an X58 board do you know whether they'd run in triple channel mode of default to single channel?

They'd run in Tripe channel mode just fine.

Don't get drawn in too much by marketing.

Dual, Triple and Quad channel is determined by your motherboard type and how many modules you have inserted.

For example, for an X79 mainboard you could buy 2 Dual Channel kits, or 4 single modules or 1 single Quad kit. The end outcome is still the same, Quad channel memory bandwidth. :)

Nice one, thought that was the case but was unsure.
 
Gibbo,
Are you likely to be stocking this RAM for some time? I was looking at getting 8Gb for my new build with the possibility of getting some more if i need it (for running Vm's). No one else seems to stock it so if you stopped then I would be looking at a getting another 16GB of a different make to keep it all the same.

Thanks
 
yes youll be fine on x79 board but dont expect to run with such low voltages on any other board

its still the cheapest path to 2133mhz+ though
 
yes and i thought i was stable at that speed with 1.45v,but turned out i wasnt,certain games would crash ect so i knuckled down to find out what was causing it,and i needed that much dram to be stable,games dont crash anymore and no matter what it wouldnt pass 32m super pi with anything less than that amount of dram (1.63v),maybe if i loosened timings to 11-11-11-30-2t i would need less? idk

mb is asus z68 v pro,cpu is 2600k
