The three 2GB kits that we tested are all winners, but the OCZ PC4000 EB Platinum Edition stood out from the crowd. The OCZ performed at fast 2-3-2 memory timings at DDR400 to 3-3-2 at DDR550 and never required more than 2.7V to maintain complete stability in our memory testing. It is rare to find a memory with this wide range of performance that is perfectly happy with voltages available on most any motherboard that you can buy. In fact, the OCZ 1 GB modules do not seem to really like voltages beyond about 2.8V.

But they have not included the old favourite, the Crucial Ballistix in this test.

^ Nope, there's no Ballistix !

The only competitors are:

1. Crucial CMX1024-3500LL PRO (DDR433)

2. Gigaram 2GB Dual Channel PC-4200 (DDR533)

3. OCZ PC4000 1024MB EB Platinum (DDR500)

IMO, the OCZ EB sticks are the next best option after the Ballistix, so no surprise that they won.

EDIT: Nikhil beat me to it :)
