The Competition

    What will we compare this stick of RAM to?  We will compare it to two other sticks of RAM, a generic "PC2700" stick of RAM and the Corsair PC2700 C2 RAM reviewed previously.  First lets look quickly at these two sticks of RAM.

The Competition

Nanya NT5DS16M8AT-6 Micron 46V16M8 6ns RAM

    The generic 256MB stick of RAM has memory made by Nanya, with a part number of NT5DS16M8AT-6 ().  This memory has a maximum setting of CAS 2.5 at 166MHz.  The Corsair memory is a 256MB stick with the part number CM64SD256-2700, which corresponds to a CAS-2 part found .   The RAM chips are Micron 6ns TSOP DDR chips found .  These chips are stated to reach PC2700 JEDEC specs of 2.5/3/3 at 166MHz (333MHz DDR).  Can the XMS memory perform better than these two competitors.  First lets look at the test setup.
