"For the professional user OCZ makes the 12-GB kit from the Platinum series. The kit runs at 1333 MHz and can operate here with 7-7-7-20. Overall, the OCZ Platinum may be regarded as a price-performance recommendation: A better 12GB kit with 1333 MHz CL7 does not exist."

"Today, I took an affordable 6GB triple channel kit to check how are performing mainstream kits. OCZ Platinum series OCZ3P1333LV6GK seems to be a good choice…Our test results show that we managed to get a decent performance. I was able to overclock to 1600MHz and the job was really simple."

“OCZ surprised us with their DDR3-1333 Platinum CL7 modules since those were the only modules from test rated at 1333MHz which were able to run at 1600MHz at CL7 as well. Obviously, OCZ made a very good selection of Micron's D9JNL chips, while usage of XTC heatspreaders will spare you of any installation worries you might have if you opt for modules with huge heatspreaders. If you're looking for very affordable DDR3 tri-channel modules with great overclocking potential, Hardware Base recommends OCZ's DDR3-1333 Platinum CL7 (OCZ3P1333LV3GK) kit.”

“The OCZ RAM runs at 1333MHz, though with a little push we had it hammering along at 1600MHz. The OCZ DDR3 runs at decent 7-7-7-20 timing, giving plenty of performance for your dollar.”

“Despite larger density, OCZ's 6GB Platinum PC3-10666 managed to outperform memories rated for 1866MHz operation. While keeping low latencies (7-7-7-20 1T), we managed to bump frequency of OCZs memory from default 1.333 MHz to 1510MHz. Loosening latencies to 9-9-9-24 1T unlocked even better frequency potential and we were awarded with the maximum clock of 1728 MHz. Considering the fact that we haven't pushed voltage higher than 1.35V, OCZ Platinum PC3-10666 kit performed admirably. At this combination of density, performance and price, it is not matched by any other DDR3 memory we tested so far, we decided to give OCZs Platinum PC3-10666 6GB kit our Recommended Award.”

"Without knowing any better, most enthusiasts would overlook a 1333MHz DDR3 memory kit; but doing so would be at their own loss. Triple-channel X58 motherboards favor low-latency DDR3 memory, and OCZ offers the perfect solution in their Platinum PC3-10666 kit. Selling the OCZ3P1333LV6GK DDR3 memory kit at a price closer to DDR2 helps make the new platform more affordable, and the extra overclocking headroom improves the overclock for enthusiasts. Gamers need not worry about the clock speed, since latency is going to be the biggest concern of the two variable, and the OCZ Platinum DDR3 memory kits perform as well as any. I recommend the OCZ Platinum 6GB Triple-Channel 1333 MHz DDR3 as an all-around excellent memory kit to tackle every task it faces, from casual computing to highly-tweaked overclocks. For the price, there isn't a better value anywhere else."

"The Platinum PC-10666 from OCZ is a good starting point for anyone that is on somewhat of a budget and wants to upgrade to the i7. The best thing about this kit is there is enough room for anyone to achieve a decent overclock. We were just shy of the magical 4GHz on our i7 920. Not too shabby for a kit of ram."

“The installation of the Hydroflow is very simple, if you put together some Legos before you will have no problems here either. The first waterblock from OCZ scores points with extremely low flow resistance, which prevents a blockage. When it comes to the cooling performance it is on par with the Alphacool XP Bold, D-Tek Fuzion V1 and EK Supreme. The Hydroflow is compatible with several sockets and priced extremely aggressive compared to other waterblocks out there, which makes it a very interesting solution. The Hydroflow received the Spar-Tipp Award from PC Games Hardware Extreme”

"The overclocking tests were far more impressive, I was able to easily achieve 1866MHz at 8-8-8-24-1T. OCZ has a nice, inexpensive Triple Chanel memory kit for the Intel Core i7 platform here. The performance is good, the memory is stable, and there is some nice overclocking headroom. this kit is at the top of our list for giving the consumer more bang for the buck. Kudos to OCZ for giving us overclockers a great way to get into a Core i7 upgraded without breaking the bank."
