We also tested the memory modules at the rated voltage of 2.8V, as well as an increased voltage of 3.0V. To check stability at overclocked speeds, we tested the memory modules with Prime 95 , running for about 2 hours in each test. Please note that Prime 95 seems to be a far tougher test than Memtest86, so any tests done with Memtest86 should NEVER be compared with those done with Prime 95.

The lowest default voltage of these modules is 2.8V, thus we made it our starting point. We increased the voltage by 0.2V for the overvolted test to show how it would fare at the higher voltage.

Still stuck in the DDR1 era?
