PC system memory is always getting faster and faster, especially with the introduction of the DDR3 memory standard. JEDEC has ratified it, Intel P35 and X38 chipsets are supporting it and we are now ...

DDR2 memory has been the mainstream over the last 3 years. Intel first brought DDR2 into the market when it launched its 9xx series of Express chipsets. These saw DDR2 hitting only 533MHz; originally ...

Transcend has released a new addition to its aXeRam family – a DDR2 1200+ 2GB dual-channel overclocking kit with custom aluminum heat sinks. Like its DDR2 1066+ and DDR2 800+ siblings in the aXeRam ...

If you know what RAM is, then overclocking it can be a great way to boost your system's overall performance for just about every task. More memory bandwidth means the CPU can work at its full ...

Competition can be a blessing for consumers, a headache for manufacturers and a driving force for an entire industry. Where a market once may have been dominated by one or two big companies with a ...

The generic idea in an ideal situation the memory should be clocked as fast as your FSB/HTT to gain optimal bandwidth. Unfortunately it's very tough and expensive to have memory clocked at that speed, ...

OCZ recently expanded its lineup of DDR2 memory to include new high-speed 4GB kits that will operate and excel at low voltages. These latest kits provide enthusiasts with a way to achieve breakneck ...

Now that both AMD and Intel have selected DDR2 as the primary memory technology across their desktop range, everything has become much more standardized. That said, purchasing DDR2 memory is not so ...

There is talk that DDR2 memory is nearing the end of its life, and while this could be true to a certain extent, I believe it to be more of the opposite. While DDR3 is on the horizon and will take ...

Double Data Rate is a memory standard that enables RAM chips to transmit output twice in every cycle of the system clock. The DDR standard was superseded in 2003 by DDR2, a memory standard offering ...

In this article we will be exploring the differences between DDR memory and DDR2 memory and also explaining a bit about the technology behind the two. Firstly, DDR stands for Dual Data Rate and is the ...
