Super Talent T1000UX2G5 2GB PC2-8000 Memory
Performance at Overclocked Settings
For the next segment of our benchmarks, we manually configured each memory kit to run at 16x240 multiplier and FSB, which equates to a 960MHz memory clock. We also overclocked the CPU to 3.84GHz. This will give us consistent data and put both RAM kits on a level playing field for this phase of testing.

As you can see, both pairs of RAM performed well, but this comes as no surprise to us considering the sources they originate from. Both Super Talent and Corsair have done an excellent jobs in making their kits perform at high bus speeds.

This graph includes the original results from our first round of benchmarks and shows how the memory kits perform at overclocked speeds. Each set gained 900-1,000 points in their second round of PCMark05 tests. With both kits running at the same speeds, Super Talent has a minimal edge over Corsair in this benchmark.

When we re-tested our RAM kits at their overclocked settings in Doom 3, we noticed that Super Talent slightly gained ground in the frame rate category. We think the 2GBs vs. Corsair's 1GB kit might have contributed somewhat to this increase, but at any rate it wasn't a large jump from our original scores.
