OCZ DDR3 PC3-14400 / 1800MHz / Platinum Edition / 2GB and 4GB Dual Channel

Tested and qualified to reach DDR3-1800 with ample overclocking capability and aggressive latencies, the OCZ PC3-14400 Platinum Edition is a true milestone. At 1800MHz, the OCZ PC3-14400 modules are rated to run CL8-8-8 to take the latest Intel platforms to previously unimaginable levels.

OCZ Platinum DDR3-1800 modules are available in up to 4GB (2x2048MB) dual channel kits. OCZ has been working closely with the leading platform providers to ensure optimal performance and compatibility on all the next generation computing platforms that will be introduced later this year.

Each module is 100% hand-tested for quality assurance and compatibility and features a proprietary platinum-mirrored XTC (Xtreme Thermal Convection) heatspreader for the most effective heat dissipation. As part of OCZ-s line-up of premium memory, the DDR3 series is backed by a Lifetime Warranty and industry-leading technical support for unparalleled peace of mind.

* All Modules are tested in two module kits. Due to additional bus load, four module configurations may have to be run at lower frequency and relaxed latencies for stable operation. Test specifications are based on dual core CPUs only. If quad core CPUs are used, higher bus thresholds and core arbitration may necessitate lowering the memory frequency below tested specs.

**XTC (Xtreme Thermal Convection) heatspreaders optimize the thermal management of memory modules by promoting greater airflow by means of micro-convection throughout what is usually the dead air space inside conventional heatspreader designs. In this manner, build-up of heat is avoided and thermal dissipation of the memory components is offloaded more efficiently through the honeycomb design. At the same time, mechanical stability is maintained.


***OCZ EVP (Extended Voltage Protection) is a feature that allows performance enthusiasts to use a VDIMM of 2.0V on 1GB modules and 1.95V on 2GB modules without invalidating their OCZ Lifetime Warranty.

"Rated at a blistering DDR3-1800 this is the fastest production DDR3 you can buy. Perhaps more important than the rated speed is the fact the new OCZ memory promises an even more aggressive binning with the 1800 rating at 8-8-8 timings. The OCZ DDR3-1800 in fact handily exceeds it rated specs, reaching DDR3-2040 at the rated timings of 8-8-8 and an astounding DDR3-1900 at 7-7-7- timings at 2.1V. This is the first DDR3 memory we have tested that is completely stable at 5-5-4 timings at DDR3-1333, an achievement that sounded unlikely in early June when we were happy to be running DDR3-1333 at 9-9-9 timings.

All in all the new OCZ DDR3-1800 is a very satisfying product, with a broad range of chart-topping, stable DDR3 performance that will keep any enthusiast happy for a while. We are genuinely pleased with all the new Micron Z9 memory products, and we are particularly pleased with the performance of this OCZ PC3-14400 Platinum Edition. We are confident you will also be pleased with the performance of this memory if you can find a way to handle the price."

"The sample we received still has a little overclocking margin, as we could run it at up to DDR3-1900 speed and 2.15V for over two hours running memory intensive applications without any issues. Compared to the timings at DDR3-1800 speed, OCZ provides tighter settings at lower speeds. They outperform JEDEC-compliant DDR3 at a maximum of DDR3-1066 by tolerating up to 70% faster clock speeds. OCZ's PC14400 goes for slightly more relaxed timings at the maximum DDR3-1800 speed, but allows the user to squeeze out another 50 MHz (equals 100 MHz in DDR mode) to reach DDR3-1900. Also, the SPD timings at lower DDR3 memory speeds are more favorable with OCZ. As other reviews show, the OCZ memory seems to have the potential to even break the DDR3-2000 barrier."

"OCZ has always been one of the forerunners for producing the really high end modules out there. It's no surprise then that they would be one of the early companies to offer 1800MHz DDR3, and I was very pleased that the OCZ DDR3-1800 modules ran at 1800MHz without any tweaking being required - it worked the first time I tried it at its specified speed. When overclocked, the OCZ Platinum PC3-14400 took top spot! If you are looking for a high-performance DDR3 module, you can't go wrong with the OCZ DDR3 PC3-14400."

"OCZ has created some great memory modules once again. The PC3-14400 Platinum Kit is perfectly balanced, so you will be able to get the most out of a high-end system no matter if you have limited voltage or timing options available in the BIOS. If you are in the market for solid memory on the newest boards like the X38 or upcoming X48 and AMD chipsets, then the OCZ PC3-14400 should be a great choice."

"The performance from these OCZ DDR3-1800 modules are truly amazing. Even at default BIOS AUTO speeds of 533Mhz (DDR3-1066), they were on top in all of our benchmarks.These OCZ DDR3-1800 PC3-14400 Platinum Series 2Gb kits are one of the fastest DDR3 memory we've tested to date. They overclock extremely well and the lower latency really makes it the choice of the enthusiast. If you've got the money to invest in these modules, then I would definitely recommend them ... Start saving up!"

"Our first test was to see how high each of the products would overclock with their advertised timings and the result was 2010MHz for OCZ. The OCZ warranty does cover their sticks for use at higher voltages, making them slightly more desirable for extreme overclocking. It was actually in regards to overclocking where it was possible to separate the brands a little. It was the OCZ modules which had a slight edge when tightening timings or increasing the clocks."

"The Platinum PC3-14400 is a great memory kit from OCZ, we saw fantastic overclocking on CL6, CL7 and CL8 even with low voltages. Because of the performance it receives our Golden Wheel, the price deserves a Budget Wheel."
