Tweakmonster Tin Coated RAM sinks

Performance

To test the performance of these products our testing methodology was simple; keep jacking up the speed until the RAM fails or we start seeing artifacts in the display.  All measurements are the average of three runs per respective test when we peaked and the numbers listed are their average. 

Test Bed

  • AMD 1800XP+ (1.53GHz) overclocked to 1.69GHz

  • AOpen AK77 Plus (KT266A) mobo

  • 512 megs Crucial PC2100 DDR SDRAM

  • ASUS V8200 GeForce3 Pure

This is what we got.

We measured the RAM sinks thermal performance with the ASUS Hardware Monitor.  These measurements were taken following 3Dmark2001 running in a loop for 30 minutes at the card's stock speeds (200MHz core / 460MHz memory.)

And what would be the point of putting all this jack on the RAM unless we showed you the benefit of doing so was.  The core was clocked at 265MHz in all runs.
