We also re-ran the PCMark05 memory performance and F.E.A.R. benchmarks again with all of the memory kits overclocked on our Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 powered test bed...

Overclocked Performance with PCMark05

Overall Memory Score

As you probably expected, PCMark05 also reported substantial gains for all of the memory kits we tested while overclocked.

In-Game Performance while Overclocked

System Memory Affects Frame rates? You Betcha!

Due to its significant increases in CPU and memory frequency, the Corsair TWIN3X2048-1800C7DF kit showed a huge improvement in the F.E.A.R. benchmark, besting its stock score by 59 FPS. And because it was the highest clocked kit of the bunch, it put up the fastest overall score as well.

Marco Chiappetta

Marco's interest in computing and technology dates all the way back to his early childhood. Even before being exposed to the Commodore P.E.T. and later the Commodore 64 in the early ‘80s, he was interested in electricity and electronics, and he still has the modded AFX cars and shop-worn soldering irons to prove it. Once he got his hands on his own Commodore 64, however, computing became Marco's passion. Throughout his academic and professional lives, Marco has worked with virtually every major platform from the TRS-80 and Amiga, to today's high end, multi-core servers. Over the years, he has worked in many fields related to technology and computing, including system design, assembly and sales, professional quality assurance testing, and technical writing. In addition to being the Managing Editor here at HotHardware for close to 15 years, Marco is also a freelance writer whose work has been published in a number of PC and technology related print publications and he is a regular fixture on HotHardware’s own Two and a Half Geeks webcast. - Contact: marco(at)hothardware(dot)com
