OCZ quality! Cool heat spreaders 
2008-09-13
OCZ Platinum 2GB (2 x 1GB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 400 (PC 3200) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Retail
The OCZ Platinum 2GB kit came in a simple blister pack that can be re-sealed. I installed the two sticks (2x 1GB) into a Dell and it automatically detected and set the correct timings (based on SPD data I presume). I ran the latest Sisoft Sandra and observed the memory timings are listed as 2.5-2-3-2-5, rather than the advertised 2-3-2-5 on Newegg and other sources. Apparently the CAS latency is only 2.5 versus the advertised 2.0 at least with this motherboard. The RAM worked well but I didn't see how I could justify paying a premium for "performance" when It really didn't offer anything substantial over generic 184-pin DDR RAM other than OCZ quality/reliability. The weight of each memory stick is noticeably heavy due to the addition of the heat spreaders. This won't be a problem for most desktop users, but the LAN party folks who like to shed as much weight from their rigs should take notice.
Newegg's Egg Saver shipping took 6 calendar days to deliver the RAM, and the OCZ rebate requires a postmark date within 12 calendar days from the date of purchase.
Pros: Easy to install, cool looking heat spreaders. OCZ quality.
Cons: Auto SPD settings will default to CAS of 2.5 on certain motherboards.
Overall: This RAM kit was still priced competitively with other brands, but I don't see any incentive to buying it over a more generic OCZ model since the CAS latency defaults to 2.5 instead of 2.0. This memory went out of style years ago, so I doubt many people will even pay attention to this review. OCZ appears to make robust memory so I am not too disappointed.
OCZ RAM upgrade saved my system 
2008-09-10
Hallelujah! Here is my story. I was getting 3-4 blue screens a day on my XP-Pro system, with driver problems, dead USB ports, page faults, and other nightmare malfunctions.
These weird intermittent problems led me to suspect that my RAM (Transcend) might have had some electrical flaws, so I decided to try a couple of fresh sticks of doublemint. Popped in a brace of these OCZ 1 GB beauties and fired up. The system auto-detected the new latencies and has run perfectly for a month now.
Highly recommended.
Fast & Reliable 2008-07-17
I got two sets of these, after benchmarking & testing the first set. (Getting them at a discount was also nice. :^) These replaced 1GB of (5-year old) Corsair XMS sticks that were throwing memory errors at even relaxed timings.
The OCZ's are HEAVY -- the heat spreaders are not just glitzy DIMM wrappers to make the memory sticks look fancy; they're thick & serious about sucking the heat out of these guys when under heavy load. In fact, I had to put shims between each pair to open an air channel between them, as the DIMM slots in my mobo were not designed with thick DIMMS in mind. Capping that with a memory fan ensures that they'll stay cool and hopefully last longer than the Corsairs did.
The first set I put in ran at 2-3-2-6 / 800MHz (DDR400) using MemTest86 running overnight with no errors, but the second couldn't handle the short timings (even though they're advertised to do so). Better yet, both sets would run reliably at 3-4-3-8 / 1000MHz (DDR500), overclocking my system by 25%. That gives me just shy of 3200 MB/sec memory bandwidth, with the added advantage of clocking the rest of my system 25% faster. The higher mem BW + reduced disk access has breathed new life into my P4 system -- it really screams now!
Awesome! 2008-03-09
Running Vista Ultimate smoothly on my X2 4200+ with this pair. I've been impressed by OCZ. Thanks guys.
Simploy the best 2007-07-03
This is my third pair of this DDRs. They are awesome stable and overclock very well too.
Best DDR available IMO.
Excellent RAM at a low price 2007-05-06
OCZ Platinum Edition PC-3200 memory is specifically designed for ultra-low latency timing operation on both Intel and AMD chipset based motherboards. OCZ Platinum Edition PC-3200 memory is able to reach latencies as low as CL 2-3-2-5 or even lower depending on the specific motherboard!Every Dual Channel Kit from OCZ is hand tested as a matched pair across a wide variety of motherboards to ensure flawless performance on most motherboards.Each OCZ Platinum Edition module also comes with a high quality copper heat spreader with a Platinum mirrored finish that not only helps dissipate heat, but also looks great in a windowed PC case.Finally, OCZ Platinum Edition memory modules are rated to handle up to 2.8V without invalidating the OCZ Lifetime Warranty so that performance enthusiasts can tweak their systems without worry!
