Great comparison for all those looking to buy 2GB kits.

Have you ever wondered which 2GB kit would perform better in your setup? Or how much difference there is between them? This short write-up is an attempt to give one an idea how Infineon CE-5 based 2GB set stacks up against it counterpart built with Samsung UCCC.

I "locked" my Opteron @ 3200MHz and tested each set of memory (CE-5 and UCCC) at it's max possible frequency that particular divider allows - div183 for UCCC @ 291MHz 7-4-4-3.0-1T and div166 for CE-5 @ 267 5-3-3-3.0-1T.
I put as much effort as I could to run each type of memory "as tight" as I could. I decided to limit my test to CAS3.0 on CE-5 as well as TRCD=4 on UCCC only. Both kits have somewhat above average OC potential.

Tests were run one at a time, screenshots taken, then PC was rebooted and next test was performed.

Setup:
AMD Opteron 146 @3200MHz
DFI LP Ultra-D R.A02, BIOS 11/14 Official
NForce4 drivers 6.70, USB, Network and Audio enabled.
EVGA 7800GTX 256MB KO @ 500+40/1400 (low-power mode disabled thru BIOS-mod)
Forceware 84.21, default driver settings (Quality)
Windows XP SP2 fresh install, not tweaked
2GB Corsair TWINX2048-4400PRO (Infineon CE-5)
2GB G.Skill F1-4000USU2-2GBHZ (Samsung UCCC)

There you are, here are the results - 1st column for CE-5 and 2nd for UCCC...

Well the results are so close that its within the margin of error so we must look at the price and there UCCC wins by a big margin.
