OCZ DDR Booster

Sidney · 2nd June 2005, 14:14

A lot of extreme overclockers break out their soldering irons and
change a resistor or add a potentiometer to their motherboard so they
can get that extra voltage to the RAM. Now, as a person who has done
this twice, I'll just say it is not that easy for an amateur. If it
doesn't work, you just ruined your motherboard, and if it did work you
still can easily fry your system components.

So what did OCZ go and do to make our lives easier? They created the
OCZ DDR Booster device! Now this device looks like the offspring of a
power supply and DDR ram stick, and that is exactly what it is. It
simply redirects some of the voltage from your power supply directly
to the voltage rails on the RAM, effectively giving you the ability to
raise the voltage of your RAM up to and beyond any safe levels.
