Corsair TWIN2X2048-8500C5 (DDR2-1066/PC2-8500) 2 GB Memory Kit Review
Memory Performance
Contents
We measured memory performance using the memory performance module of PCMark05 Professional program. The results are given in a specific unit of the program. The methodology we used you can check on the “How We Tested” section.
We also ran the system benchmark provided by PCMark05. However, the system performance remained on the same level with all memory modules we installed.
The results you can see on the chart and table below.
| Memory Module | Score | Difference |
| Corsair CM2X1024-8500C5 (DDR2-1066) | 5916 | |
| DDR2-800 Simulation | 5689 | 3.99% |
| Corsair CM2X1024-6400C3 (DDR2-800) | 5684 | 4.08% |
| Corsair CM2X512A-5400UL (DDR2-667) | 5633 | 5.02% |
| DDR2-667 Simulation | 5582 | 5.98% |
| DDR2-533 Simulation | 5473 | 8.09% |
| Corsair CM2X512-4200 (DDR2-533) | 5464 | 8.27% |
Keep in mind that a higher performance of the memory subsystem does not necessarily translates into a higher system performance.
