“Today we take a look at a DDR2 kit from Gskill. We got their new 8500 kit that seems to perform quite well according to some other reviews I have seen. We are going to compare this vs our previous DDR2 kits that have performed the best. We are also going to try to boost this kit a bit to see how it performs under heavy overclocking.”Here are some more Memory articles from around the web:

It’s all in the timing

R&B Mods looks at G.SKILL’s DDR2 PC2 8500, which have been constructed a with a little more attention to detail that some other modules we’ve seen. It’s stock speed of 1066 @ 5-5-5-15 really isn’t all that impressive but 4-5-5-13 @ 285 FSB isn’t too bad, and they manged to hit 300Mhz with loose timings. Maybe you can pick up a kit and do even better.
