OCZ 2GB PC2-8500 Reaper HPC CrossFire-Certified RAM
Test System
I'll be using the same system that I used to benchmark the Sapphire 780G motherboard and Radeon HD3870 Toxic video card. This included the Thermaltake M9, Phenom 9500 provided by AMD, and the Sapphire 780G Motherboard and HD3450 video card.
| Processor | AMD Phenom 9500 | |
| Motherboard | Sapphire PI-AM2RS780G 780G | |
| RAM | 2GB DDR2 PC2-8500 Reaper HPC CrossFire Certified | 2GB DDR2-800 Crucial Ballistix Tracer |
| Video Card | RS780 / Radeon HD3450 in CrossFire | |
| Chassis | Thermaltake M9 | |
| CPU Cooling | Xigmatek HDT-S1283 | |
| Hard Drive | Excelstor 250GB SATA2 | |
| Power Supply | Crucial TX750 750W PSU | |
| Display | 1280x1024 | |
Let's move along to look at Windows performance first, followed by Linux performance. Utilizing the HD3450 and 780G motherboard in a CrossFire configuration should ideally give the best results for this RAM.
