The Gold Standard is here. OCZ's Gold series Triple Channel kits set the standards for enthusiast-oriented memory module kits developed for the upcoming Intel Core i7 processor / Intel X58 Express Chipset. This triple channel 6GB kit is rated to run at 1600MHz and has CL 8-8-8-24 timings for speedy performance. Each kit is 100% hand tested for performance and compatibility.

The XTC heat spreaders are designed to take advantage of the micro convection currents that occur in the channels between the individual memory chips. And the gold mirrored honeycomb design facilitates maximum heat distribution.

This new 6GB kit ensures optimal performance via an ideal combination of low voltage requirements, speed, and latency, so it's a perfect match for the Nehalem platform to unleash performance you could only dream of before.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Runs at its rated speeds and timings without a hitch. Absolutely no problems when paired with an eVGA X58 board. Lifetime warranty.
Cons: Just wish it was DDR3-2000, that is all :)
Other Thoughts: The Corsair Dominator 6GB DDR3-1600 kit has the exact same speed, timings, and voltage but costs over $50 more.

Cold Boot Sees Only 4GB

white Reviewed By: Tellushow on 3/13/2010
Rating + 3
Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Less expensive than competing products with same specs.
Cons: Requires BIOS tweaks to reach 1600 speed.
On cold boot (after sitting for 4-6 hours) computer would initially only see 4 out 6GB - both in BIOS and Windows 7 x64. Subsequent boots would see all 6GB.
Problem is not uncommon if you search OCZ forums. Performing cold boot on 1 stick at a time revealed 1 bad stick. Should have done this first thing instead of spending many days fooling with timings hoping to fix issue.
Other Thoughts: Although I had passed 30-day limit for return, I phoned Newegg and they allowed me to return for full refund. I in turn ordered Corsair TR3X6G1600C8D - Retail. Yes $80 more, but problem solved. i7-920 now stable at 3.8GHz with 8-8-8-24-88-2T and sees all 6GB all the time!
Manufacturer Response:Hello, we are sorry that you had problems. We are confident that an RMA for a replacement kit would have taken care of this for you.
Thank you
