Ah, would have been nice to see the 2.8GHz kit in action.
Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

you can just buy cheap 1600mhz ram and OC to 1866 at stock timings and it will perform better than this sloppy overpriced rubbish
very good review. My question here is, what ddr3 1600mhz freq with XMP 1.3 would you recommend for my Asus Z77 Deluxe panther point motherboard ?
It's a pity around 20 games wasn't used for the test, games like Crysis 3, Hitman Absolution, Sleeping Dogs, Civilisation 5, Skyrim, Alan Wake, Saints Row 5 etc etc, not sure it's fully conclusive.
I've got a few sticks of ram including the ones you used, once I've got my haswell rig setup, I'll run a few tests at 1600@9-9-9-24 and 2400@10-12-12-31
Interesting, a few years ago I did a similar test with an AMD rig using Crysis Benchmark over 5 runs per bench, taking the average.
Graphics Card: GTX 295
CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition @ 3.6GHz (3.8Ghz = add extra 2 fps)
Ram: OCZ Blade Series 6GB (3x2GB) DDR3 PC3-16000 Triple Channel (Tested at various timings using 2x2GB) / OCZ Platinum 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-10666C7 1333MHz Dual Channel (SAME RESULTS)
Crysis 1600mhz 7-7-7-24 = 54.98 fps
Crysis 1333mhz 7-7-7-24 = 54.43 fps
Crysis 1333mhz 6-6-6-24 = 54.87 fps
Crysis 1333mhz 9-9-9-24 = 52.98 fps
