Patriot Viper 2x1GB DDR3 PC3-15000 Review | ||

| Conclusion Conclusion: We had a fun time with this Patriot Viper Extreme memory; from the first time we opened the shipping package and saw this elegant little white box inside to the very last benchmark on the P5K3-Dlx. The Viper Extreme always seemed willing and able to do what we asked. We have had a handful of DDR3 come through the doors here at Hardware Canucks and they have all impressed at some point or another, some more than others and some a little less than the rest. This Patriot kit is sitting near the top but not quite on the crest of the hill. ![]() We almost got through a DDR3 review without discussing the cost of this memory but not quite. DDR3 is still on the higher end of the scale when compared to DDR2 but heck, so is a Happy Meal from McDonalds. DDR2 memory is still so bloody cheap right now that it is really hard to justify the cost of DDR3. Patriot has done an amazing job in their pricing of not only these modules but the lower rated PC3-12800 Viper Extreme and we should start to see head way in the coming months as far as prices go. For those that want the absolute most performance though, DDR3 is definitely the way to go. Pros:
Cons:
