"DDR3 Gold Series Memory"


OCZ announced the launch of its latest "ultra-high performance and high reliability memory" modules that are part of the DDR3 Gold series targeted at "mainstream system builders, gamers, and professionals upgrading to the latest Intel platforms". The latest of the Gold DDR3 memory modules features a high clock frequency of 1600MHz and

low 8-8-8 timings. This memory is a more standard abiding one than the 1800MHz modules that jumped 200MHz over the JEDEC's certified standard for DDR3 and it works with 1.8V, a little lower than the 1.9V needed by the previous model."More and more consumers are now starting to adopt DDR3 solutions with the platforms becoming more readily available," commented Alex Mei, EVP and CMO of OCZ Technology Group and he was cited in the company's
press release. "To meet the needs of all levels of consumers during the proliferation of DDR3 technology OCZ is now introducing a DDR3-12800 Gold kit specifically designed for gamers looking to take advantage of the performance benefits of DDR3 technology in their cutting-edge desktops."The DDR3 PC3-12800 Gold Edition memory modules are developed to make the most of the new Intel P35 and X38 Express chipsets and they will be available in dual channel kits( 2x1024MB) and separate 1GB packaged modules. According to the press release, "OCZ has been working closely with the leading platform providers to ensure optimal performance and compatibility on all the next generation computing platforms that will be introduced later this year".Just like all OCZ products, this too comes with a lifetime warranty and has been hand tested for "quality assurance and compatibility". The gold-mirrored XTCXtreme Thermal Convection Z3 heatspreader that is specific to OCZ's Gold memory products is used on these memory line as well, in order to achieve the best heat dissipation and to ensure optimal system stability.
