OCZ DDR2 PC2-9200 Reaper HPC Edition

"Comprehensive review shows that best performance is what you get with OCZ memories. Best cooling too. OCZ Reaper DDR2-1150 gets NVISION Best Performance Award."

"If you're looking for DDR2 memory modules that can do at least 1150MHz the Reaper HPC PC2-9200 memory kit from OCZ is a good choice. The modules are fast, stable and have an exclusive design. Some people managed to reach clockspeeds of more than 1275MHz with these modules. If you're lucky it may achieve more than 1250MHz."

"With this OCZ Reaper pc 9200, you'll have incredible performance for your PC! Indeed, these OCZ Reaper are the cheapest kit of DDR2 for a frequency of 1150 Mhz and with a CAS 5 for the timings. Thanks to the heat pipe conduit (HPC), the kit is always cold! You can use it in Cas 4 without problems, and in all cases, at 1150 Mhz, it's an impressive kit of ddr2."

"The OCZ Reaper is the memory with lower specifications, on paper that is! With a bit more voltage the Reaper easily overclocks to the performance level of the Diablo and even above that managing an impressive speed of 1250MHz. Thanks to the innovative heatpipe design the memory stayed completely cool during the overclocking, another plus for OCZ."

"We tested the Reaper 9200 with 400MHz with 3-4-4-12 timings, just to show that this memory is also capable of performing with low timings. The Reaper 9200 looks very good, and besides that, it is a super fast memory! This memory is really good for overclockers. The heatpipes design is a very nice innovation."

"Overall, the OCZ Reaper PC2-9200 2GB kit is a pretty decent kit for the price. With its innovative heatsinks, the modules were comfortable at higher voltage. The heatsinks were very effective in keeping the modules cool as heat could be felt moving through the heatpipes. The heatsinks also looked great and would definitely stand out from the rest. As on the overclocking and stability department, the Reaper HPC kit is among one of the top rated DDR2 kits we have tested. The modules also showed excellent compatibility on our test platform as we managed to score over 8000 MB/s in Sandra 2007 Memory Benchmark."

"At 650MHz, this is an amazing performance of the Reaper 9200 because even with higher spec-ed modules we haven't been able to reach this level. The OCZ Reaper 9200 impressed on in every aspect. Technically they are in the same category as 9600 or 10000 memory modules looking at the results, DDR2 1300MHz is a great overclock and hard to reach with these type of high end modules. Last but not least the Reaper design is the final touch to this amazing product."

"I was glad that I could down clock the memory to 400MHz and have it run at 3-3-3-8, which are great timings for DDR2-800. Overclocking to 600MHz from 571MHz without changing the volts or timings was also nice to see. If you're looking for quality, high performance memory, but don't want to break the bank, check out the OCZ Reaper HPC Edition PC2-9200 2GB DDR2-1150 set."

"I can't honestly think of another RAM module or kit which features copper heatpipe cooling. Someone let me know if there is, but for as far as I can research OCZ is the pioneer. With aluminum alloy construction in the heat-spreaders and heatpipe heatsink, this is one rugged product. While I would hope that these module never see harsh handling, they are build strong enough to withstand it. Additionally, if you are the extreme overclocking type, the copper heatpipe cooling system is going to open some doors to over-voltage cooling that don't exist anywhere else. It seems that OCZ has mixed the ingredients carefully and the finished result is a highly affordable enthusiast-grade performance DDR2 solution."

"The ram kit has performed stable throughout the whole test. We have been able to overclock it, and the new heatsink works. We have tested and felt the heatsinks to see if they do transfer any heat and they do. The memory was well packed and the only real con I can see is the price as they still sell for a somewhat high price."

"I must say that OCZ Technology is delivering a pretty impressive memory kit here. The performance is exceptionally good. To love or fear the Reaper; not once did we encounter stability issues, so that's definitely worthy of mention and I've actually tried this memory in two different systems as part of a little compatibility test. You tell me .. how on this earth can you possibly go wrong with this OCZ Reaper kit? What a flamboyant memory kit this is, and it looks so extraordinarily cool.?

"We can?t be more emphatic. The OCZ 9200 Reaper HPC is one of those products that we would be willing to pay with supreme pleasure, because the satisfaction that has provided us throughout the review has been excellent under any circumstance. We speak here about some maximum performance memory, with a performance and an enormous overclock capacity with a price that couldn?t be imagined even a couple of months ago."

"The OCZ Reaper HPC DDR2 PC2-9200 modules offer a novel cooling approach along with a reasonable price tag. Our initial impression of the product was positive. Speaking of positives, OCZ's warranty is another. You can't get much better than a lifetime warranty and the additional EVP coverage is a bonus for overclockers. We'd be shocked if anyone bought the OCZ and didn't turn out to be a happy bunny."

"I have to admit that OCZ's pricing on the Reapers rock! We have to award OCZ's Reaper HPC PC2-9200 with the Performance/Value award, one of the cheapest and guaranteed D9GMH kits out there, and backed up by OCZ's great lifetime warranty."

"The modules showed great performance, the first setting we used were DDR2-800 at 3-3-3-4-5 1T and the Reapers ran flawless. Overall the modules do not only stand out with amazing design and cooling abilities, the performance is excellent as well which is why we give it our Editor's Choice Award."

"OCZ?s Reaper HPC edition modules are very well designed for the active cooling users who are not into water cooling. Overall OCZ has a fantastic product here and are worth considering if you are looking to increase performance over older DDR-2 memory modules."

"This DDR kit from OCZ was just what we expected. OCZ has consistantly provided the comsumer with a quality built product that performs to the level that is advertised, and usually goes beyond that to give the enthusiast a great experience as he pushes his rig to the limits. If you are looking for a great set of DDR2 for your box, this OCZ 9200 Reaper would be a great addition."

"All in all, these are great modules and they are also really good value for money. Taking everything into consideration, especially the extremely competitive price, they come highly recommended and will quite confidently power a high end gaming system for some time to come."

?Reaper HPC modules ran at 45C at 2.5V during our stress tests. HPC cooling system proved its performance. OCZ gives lifetime warranty and EVP to these OC modules which shows the trust in their quality.?

"It probably will not come as a surprise to know that I recommend these modules. This kit proved the highest overclock of any other we've reviewed in the past. Corsairs DOMINATOR 9136 was at the top for quite a while, but it was dethroned thanks to the Reaper 9200's extra 7MHz. From an overclocking standpoint, you cannot go wrong. OCZs 9200 Reaper is the fastest kit currently on the market for the price. Every other 9200 kit I stumbled upon cost far more?the overclocking potential greatly outweighs any extra cost in price, and even as it stands, it's cheaper than equal competition.?
