Deep in the underground bunkers of ClubOC Headquarters, the mad scientists have cleared away the blown motherboards and fried processors. They have fired up the nuclear reactors, thrown another log in the fire and are gathering around a small package just in from Patriot Memory. Sounds like we are in for a long night of overclocking madness! Overclocking or not, the people at Patriot Memory have always produced top notch memory capable of delivering high benchmark scores with stable performance. Let's take a look at their new EPP ready PC2-6400 dual channel kit with low timings of 4-4-4-12.

About Patriot Memory's PC2-6400

     The Patriot Extreme Performance (EP) Low Latency is engineered to provide PC enthusiasts and gamers the power to perform with extreme bandwidth and low latency. It is capable of operating up to PC2-6400 (800MHz) and at latency of 4-4-4-12. It is equipped with heat shields to improve module stability performance while operating under extreme overclocking conditions. Available in 1GB and 512MB capacities, the Patriot Extreme Performance Low Latency is engineered specifically towards PC enthusiasts and gamers who prefer latency to bandwidth.

About EPP (Enhance Performance Profiles)
     NVIDIA - Developed as an extension to the traditional Serial Presence Detect (SPD) found on today's high-performance DIMMS, Enhanced Performance Profiles allow memory manufacturers to integrate additional module performance data in the unused portion of the JEDEC standard SPD, allowing compatible motherboards to read and take advantage of added performance capabilities. Enhanced Performance Profiles were developed as an open standard, and immediate adoption is expected NVIDIA motherboard partners and PC memory suppliers.

     While memory modules with Enhanced Performance Profiles will work on any motherboard, only motherboards equipped with properly-designed BIOSes, such as those designed for NVIDIA nForce® 590 SLI media and communications processors (MCPs), will detect the presence of these new capabilities and prompt the user to set PC boot parameters for guaranteed optimized settings. End users will be able to measure the impact on benchmark performance and verify detailed parametric settings using common system utilities such as Lavalys EVEREST or Microsoft® Windows®-based performance tools such as NVIDIA nTune™.
