Unleash the power of Platinum! OCZ's Platinum Edition triple channel 6GB kit is rated to run at 1600MHz and has CL 7-7-7-24 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. The platinum mirrored honeycomb design encourages maximum heat distribution. The rigid frame, in addition to proclaiming to the world what memory you use also helps to reinforce structural rigidity in the module.

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

Working Well at 7-7-7-24

Reviewed By: Lemurcatta on 3/4/2009

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Fastest for the money that you can currently get. Works at spec with only 1.6v.

Cons: Sensitive to tRAS setting. Not really a con - just a note.

Doesn't support XMP so it's do-it-yourself. But XMP-ready memory doesn't seem to be this fast.

Other Thoughts: I read the comments here where people said they were running at 1600 7-7-7-20 with DRAM voltage at 1.6v. This did NOT work for me: bluescreens, Prime95 crashes, and desktop freezes.

The odd thing is that memtest86+ never had a problem with 7-7-7-20, the problems only showed up when booted into Vista x64. I suspect a possible Intel chipset/inf file issue at the root of the tRAS sensitivity because people on the OCZ forum are reporting similar issues that don't happen in DOS but do in Vista.

Changing to 7-7-7-24 solved all these problems. This is the actual spec'ed setting so if you get tighter than this you're just lucky. Actually, the specs call for 1.65 DRAM voltage and it does work with just 1.60v which is nice.

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Timings worked right out of the box!! Fastest memory I have ever had. From a guy that only bought Corsair ram I decided to go OCZ after my Dominators died after 8months of use and I made the right choice. This ram is absolutely amazing and I have it overclocked to 1800 speeds still using the awsome low timings without any problems at all! I even have the voltage set to a lower 1.6 instead and still works flawless with my OC i7 920.

Cons: Had to manually set the frequency through Bios but thats not really a con im just lazy lol.

Other Thoughts: For the price and quality imo these are the best triple channel dimms out right now since the timings are super fast and you can get them to run at 1800 speeds with the same timings instead of paying for the 1800 dimms and sacrificing your timings.

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Great mem. I've got 12 Gb running on my Core i7 920 with a RIIE mobo. Blazing fast.

Cons: My overclocks weren't nearly as stable once I added the second 6 Gb to bring it up to 12 Gb. I had to back it down from 3.8+ Ghz to 3.5 Ghz. Oh well, who needs those extra 400 Mhz? Oh wait, I DO! That's why I bought a $300 mobo!!
