Test System
For this review I'll be
using ABIT's AA8 DuraMAX motherboard which is based on Intel's 925X
Express chipset.

Testing -
SiSoft Sandra
Benchmarking will be
accomplished by using SiSoft Sandra. As far as performance settings go,
it just doesn't get any better than the ABIT AA8. Besides the normal bus
speed locks, the AA8 has a CPU to Memory ratio setting that works
incredibly well. I'll start out at a ratio of 1:1 and work my way up to
3:4.
SiSoft
Sandra Memory Bench (higher score is better)
1:1 - 200/200MHz
1:1
- 250/250MHz
So far so good,
but the numbers are slightly below those we've seen with Crucial, OCZ
and PQI DDR2-5400.
