![]() | The memory kits we have from Corsair, Kingston, Mushkin, OCZ, and PQI are pretty much identical. They all have models with identical latencies (2-2-2-5), some basic heat spreaders, Samsung TCCD IC's and a lifetime warranty. So, memory modules using identical IC's at identical latencies should yield similar results. We found that this was not the case and discovered a new bottleneck for memory -- the PCB. Sit back and grab a drink while we reveal the bottle neck to you so the dedicated enthusiast knows what is going on. http://www.legitreviews.com/article.php?aid=53

![]() | I would think the IC is the key; PCB layers 3,4,5,6 might effect surface mount components I would "think" and not negatively impact the performance. Interesting.
