Everest Results @ HTT: 200 MHz Now we will grab some sample information from Everest Ultimate Edition and get some feed back on the rams performance. Lavalys was nice enough to allow us to evaluate there software for this review. I really like the wealth of information this utility gives us and we thank Lavalys for there support. 

Everest Memory Read The next group of test is going to be real world you and me testing. Our test methods are easy, we simply re-booted the machine with 28 processes running and then loaded Everest and took these benches. The system was on a HTT of 200 MHz and the system was tested at default. At a 200 MHz HTT we got a 4th place finish coming off with a 5765 MB/s on the memory read test. This is essentially a synthetic test compared to a database of similar configurations. None-the-less it is pretty accurate for what it provides to the end user. Let's get a run down... 
Everest Memory Write The memory write sequence was also very fast coming in at 2202 MB/s, putting it in fourth place over all based on our configuration and system test bed and running the 28 processes as if the system was ready for everyday use. So this is close to real world as you can get, we are using the very PC to write this review, so while it might not be the fastest, considering its totally stock on default settings used as a daily user PC - what more do you want?
Everest Memory Latency A 52.2 nanosecond latency is consider fast, so don’t let the number fool you. The DFI LanParty NF4 SLI-DR crunches through the test with similar systems with tighter timings, giving you a real look at just how fast these modules are. The fact we are seeing this ram compete with ram using 2-2-2-5 configurations says it all. The ram is fast and that's that! 
The Everest synthetics test's are as close to real world testing as we can get, this allows anyone to build a system, install this ram and run similar results whether the system is thermoelectric cooled or not. That aspect is kind of irrelevant to the testing, but the fact remains we are dealing with incredibly fast ram. OK so its fast at stock speeds what about over-clocking? Let's take a look... |
