OCZ DDR3 PC3-16000 / 2000MHz / NVIDIA® SLI-Ready Edition / EPP 2.0 Ready

The blistering fast PC3-16000 DDR3 modules are NVIDIA SLI-certified to run at an extreme 2GHz on the next generation NVIDIA nForce 790i Ultra SLI motherboards. Designed to offer enthusiasts the rock-solid stability and speed they've been demanding, the OCZ PC3-16000 SLI-Ready series makes use of the unbeatable overclocking capabilities of the nForce 790i Ultra SLI platform and takes DDR3 to new heights.

Each OCZ PC3-16000 SLI-Ready memory module features EPP 2.0, the next generation of the widely adopted EPP 1.0 SPD (Serial Presence Detect) specification. Delivering enhanced system performance, OCZ EPP 2.0 modules are programmed to boot at 2000MHz DDR3 with aggressive timings of 9-9-9. Only motherboards equipped with the custom-designed NVIDIA nForce 790i Ultra BIOS can detect the optimized SPD profiles and ensure the memory functions under the best possible conditions. The exclusive OCZ SPD profiles take out the guesswork and provide enthusiasts and gamers with significant overclocked performance with no manual adjustment or compatibility issues.

As part of the NVIDIA SLI technology ecosystem, these modules undergo a rigorous series of tests by NVIDIA and are certified to provide enthusiasts and gamers the performance, compatibility, and stability they seek when building an SLI gaming system. Tailored specifically for the NVIDIA gamer, each OCZ DDR3 certified memory kit features the exclusive black SLI-Ready XTC (Xtreme Thermal Convection) heatspreader for the most efficient heat dissipation, and a look that stands out like its performance.


* Qualified on XFX and EVGA 790i Ultra motherboards

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.Test specifications are based on dual core CPUs only.

**NVIDIA nForce 790i platforms only

***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.




Bjorn 3D
"The OCZ PC3-16000 dominated the field. We'd not only have to say it dominated the field, but handed out a severe whipping to the competition. The OCZ PC3-16000 NVIDIA SLI-Ready Edition two Gig kit outperformed all of the other kits in every test we ran. In most tests, it not only outran, but thoroughly smashed, the competition. A lot of that is due to proper tuning and running it correctly. The advent of High Performance Enhanced Latency DDR3 has filled a niche that sorely needed filling. OCZ has done one heck of a good job with this PC3-16000 NVIDIA SLI-Ready Edition DDR3 2GB kit. It's the fastest ram we've tested to date!"

CPU Magazine: DDR Deathmatch
"An SLI certification means that you can drop a pair of modules into an nForce-based motherboard with GeForce GPUs, and a similarly certified power supply, and not run into configuration issues. Part of that ease-of-use message involves supporting EPP (Enhanced Performance Profile) settings. So, when you install these OCZ DDR3 modules into a 790i-based board, for instance, it’ll expose certain settings that wouldn’t be available otherwise. Running at full-tilt, OCZ’s fastest available SLI-Ready Edition kit operates at 2,000MHz with latencies of 9-9-9-30."

Pro-Clockers
"The OCZ SLI Edition DDR3 running at a default 2000MHZ is one of those sets of ram that would allow you to take you CPU to the upper regions of overclocking bliss. While running on our EVGA 790I board we were able to get very high front bus on our CPU without having the ram be a huge bottleneck. This was done without having to play with voltages on the side of the memory. And speaking of voltages the default 2000MHz is done with only 1.8 volts. Before when I was playing with other non-2000MHz it usually took 2 volts plus to achieve 2000MHz. This kit is EPP 2.0 ready meaning the BIOS will set up all the numbers for you when using an Nvidia chipset. We are greedy as a people and always want more. But this kit did not give in."

OverClock Intelligence Agency
"There are benefits for running this and other DDR3-2000 memory on lesser motherboards. They offer plenty of headroom for overclocking on motherboards that don't allow for separate clocking of FSB and memory, such as my Gigabyte X48T-DQ6 board. There is also plenty of overhead for trying to attain tighter timings at lower speeds. One thing that sets the OCZ SLI DDR3-2000 kit above the others is that it does its thing at 1.8v, while most other similar kits run at 1.9v or 2.0v. That and the fact that it is just so pretty. It really is. The OCZ SLI DDR3-2000 2GB kit is a really incredible price for upper-end DDR3 memory, to say the least."
