1GB OCZ Modules

by Anand Lal Shimpi on April 9, 2004 5:49 AM EST
OCZ sent over a set of their new 1GB modules for the G5, I'll be playing around with them next week and post my findings here.

Memory testing on the Mac is a bit different than what I'm used to on the PC: we're not testing for overclocking headroom or speed, rather just stability and price :)

More on this when I get back....

    I would love to know how to OC a dual G5. switch a few resistors around and viola, make a 1.8 into a 2 gig. Schweet.

    Must say that all the reporting on the G5 has been excellent!

    Good to see Macs appreciated on more things than looks again...

    Great, Anand! We are all eagerly awaiting your Mac section!

    The benefits are density (1GB modules will let you reach 8GB in a 2P G5) and that, if they work well, there's yet another competitor in the G5 memory market. The prices on G5 memory are ridiculous, the more competitors the merrier.

    Take care,

    Seeing your comments on the G5 maxed out with 2GB modules would great.

    "After a month of heavy multitasking... 16GBs is beginning to feel a bit tight. I've only got a couple GBs left free..."

    Anand;
    Are there any benefits to these modules, except their size?
