OCZ EL DDR PC-4000 / 500MHz / Gold Series / Voltage eXtreme / Dual Channel

OCZ Gold Series EL PC-4000 with Voltage eXtreme technology is a revolutionary line of memory designed to pursue a new level of DDR performance. The PC-4000 Gold VX is made to operate above the traditional memory voltage to increase speed and stability to ultimately allow the memory to thrive under high voltage. Memory performance increases with voltage, but unfortunately with many traditional modules this can significantly reduce stability and increase the potential for module damage. Unlike typical memory, VX DDR performs best at an above average voltage, and better and better as voltage is increased, all without any adverse affects to stability. Running at 3.3 volts, the PC-4000 Gold VX is capable of blistering timings of 2-2-2!

OCZ PC-4000 Gold VX is also made with OCZ?s proprietary Enhanced Latency technology to allow the modules to run at lower latencies than normally possible. In addition, each OCZ EL PC-3200 VX module is encased in a gold mirrored copper heatspreader and is backed by OCZ?s industry leading toll-free technical support and lifetime warranty.

The Gold Voltage eXtreme product line 100% hand-tested to ensure OCZ quality and is optimized for use on Athlon 64 based motherboards. Every Dual Channel Kit from OCZ is hand tested as a matched pair across a wide variety of motherboards to ensure flawless performance on most motherboards. OCZ VX Gold Edition memory modules are rated to handle up to an incredible 3.5V without invalidating the OCZ Lifetime Warranty so that performance enthusiasts can tweak their systems without worry. Leave it to OCZ to design the ultimate high performance memory that thrives under high voltage.


* OCZ EVP (Extended Voltage Protection) is a feature that allows performance enthusiasts to use a VDIMM of 3.5V ± 5% without invalidating their OCZ Lifetime Warranty.

**ULN2 (Ultra Low Noise) technology uses various printed circuit board (PCB) techniques to reduce the amount of electrical noise that is present in all high-speed ICs. This results in faster and more stable memory.

*OCZ VX series is not recomended for use on legacy nForce 2 platforms*




Anandtech
"If you are a raving enthusiast, you will have to have OCZ VX memory. If you are considering a DFI nForce4 purchase, then VX should be at the top of your memory list. If you want top performance, then you should at least consider OCZ Gold VX even if it requires a DDR Booster to run. Yes, OCZ PC4000 VX Gold is that good!"

InsaneTek
"Boasting the highest overclocks with the lowest timings that we have seen here at InsaneTek, OCZ's PC4000 VX's easily take the crown for the fastest memory currently on the market. At its rated speeds of 250MHZ, the VX's are able to perform equally to TCCD-based memory running well over 300MHZ. And the best part is, these modules were able to overclock a full 10Mhz past their rated speeds. "

"In short, the DFI board, along with a gig of OCZ?s Gold Edition VX memory, is a potent combination for enthusiasts looking to push their systems a little further."

"For anyone who is looking for some extremely-low-latency RAM, this is the stuff to get. Even if you plan to run at stock 200 MHz speeds, the 2-2-2-8-1T timings will give you a nice boost over any generic PC3200 DDR memory. With a voltage and memory clock bump, your system will fly. In all honesty, this is among the best RAM that you can buy, even if it may not be the absolute fastest when compared against higher-clocked OCZ PC4200 EL PE memory."

Bytesector
"...the OCZ PC4000 VX never ceased to impress me. This performance hungry memory module offers flawless stability from DDR400 speed to DDR533 speed at surprisingly low timings. Rest assured that you are getting top quality and performance for your money. Once again, OCZ pushes to draw the new line of high performance and it does so with its OCZ PC4000 VX."

PC Stats
"Of course the OCZ PC4000 Gold Dual Channel VX's strong suit is overclocking, and boy did it kick butt. With 2-2-2-5 memory timings and a voltage of 3.5V, the memory hit an amazing 268 MHz!...the OCZ PC4000 Gold Dual Channel VX memory kit is an absolute steal (at least compared to what we're use to seeing for high-end memory). If you're an enthusiast itching to have the fastest system on the block, it's a pretty good bet that this set of OCZ can help you build a speed demon."

"I believe this memory is very great fun to play with. They made me forget my BH-5's for a few days. The bandwidth you can obtain with these modules is impressive, even when you stick with OCZ specs and don?t overclock them! When you do decide to push the envelope the results obtained were awesome, this is one of hell of a memory kit!"

Xtreme Systems
"OCZ is certainly a name you first think of when it comes to overclocking, they have a long reputation for supporting overclockers, even with all the nutty things we do to their hardware. This ram is proof of that support...What you get with the OCZ VX 4000 is Quality, Support, a Warranty, and just the feeling of knowing you got some of the fastest stuff you can possibly get, and just boosted your chances at a nice overclock at the same time."
