Corsair Vengeance Pro Review: 2x8 GB at DDR3-2400 10-12-12 1.65 V

Our final set of GPU tests are a little more on the esoteric side, using a tri-GPU setup with a HD5970 (dual GPU) and a HD5870 in tandem. While these cards are not necessarily the newest, they do provide some interesting results – particularly when we have memory accesses being diverted to multiple GPUs (or even to multiple GPUs on the same PCB). The 5970 GPUs are clocked at 800/1000, with the 5870 at 1000/1250.
Dirt 3:
In minimum FPS rates, Dirt 3 again prefers the larger memory configuration.
Bioshock Infinite:
Tomb Raider:
TR on the other hand preferred the smaller memory configuration by a sizeable margin in our 3x CFX test.

Interesting article....you mention "z-height"--what is that? Don't you mean Y-height? x=horizontal, y=vertical, z=depth...Simplex - Monday, December 16, 2013 - link
When will you test memory speed vs BF4 performance?celestialgrave - Monday, December 16, 2013 - link
So I would assume the benchmarks that show a clear hit going from 2x8gb to 4x8gb is more of an issue of the additional sticks vs the additional memory amount, so going from 2x8gb to 2x16gb wouldn't necessary see the same hit as the 4x8gb kit did?Popskalius - Sunday, February 23, 2014 - link
