It is obvious from our testing that the memory controller on AMD’s AM2 processors is critical in system performance when it comes to a number of applications. For this article we were trying to get the highest gaming scores and our efforts proved to be very successful. Starting out with PC2-5400 memory running CL4 timings our base score was 134.0 fps. After moving up to PC2-6400 memory with CL3 timings and increasing our memory capacity from 2GB to 4GB the score increased to 159.1 fps — a 25.1 fps increase or 18.7%.
This is a great look at what to expect from DDR2 on the AM2. These modules specifically look amazing, because they can handle CAS3 at great PC2-6400 speeds. Check out the full article at Legit Reviews.
