Memory Manufacturers Could be Cheating

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the please-don't-look-at-the-man-behind-the-curtain dept.

Mark Brown writes "Tom's Hardware is live-testing DDR2 memory products in order to determine whether memory manufacturers submit cherry-picked products for reviews. 'GeIL DDR2-667 that was claimed to be purchased performed worse than the review samples they got: 471 MHz for the review samples vs. 421 MHz for the retail memory.'"
