Can these platforms stop with the Memory reviews? I'm trying to live my life.

If you have limited tasks to do, surf the Internet, work with office applications and watching movies, you should build a compact system instead to spend the money on some kind of noisy PC, because over the past few years mobile processors made a big step in the development.

Compact system also needs to be balanced. That is, its components should not limit the ability of each other. And this applies to absolutely all the components, including memory. Typically, over her choice rarely think, mistakenly assuming that all kits are the same. Therefore, investigation of possible sets of RAM for compact systems is also quite urgent task, especially in our time.

Here we have Transcend TS512MSK64W6H DDR3L-1600, memory modules that are capable of operating at reduced voltage. Before going for its review let’s have a look at the spec of these madules.

Specification Details:

Model Transcend DDR3L-1600 Modules TS512MSK64W6H Memory Type DDR3L Guaranteed Effective Mode DDR3-1600 (800) – MHz Form Factor 204-pin SO-DIMM Number Of Modules 2 Memory Capacity Of Each Module 4 – GB Recommended Mode DDR3-800 11-11-11-28 1.35 Supported Supply Voltage 1.35 / 1.5 – V Conventional Modes DDR3-667 10-9-9-24

DDR3-400 6-6-6-14

DDR3-333 5-5-5-12

Enhanced XMP Profiles No Extended Profiles Epp No Low Temperature During Operation 0 – 95 – °C

Design Details:

Transcend TS512MSK64W6H DDR3L-1600 consists of two modules, when installing modules also need to take measures to prevent the discharge of static electricity, which is reminiscent of the inscription on the label.

Transcend TS512MSK64W6H DDR3L-1600 are type of SO-DIMM. Compared with conventional bars, SO-DIMM-modules are reduced in size, as often used in compact devices: laptops and mini-computers that are based on motherboards ITX / Mini-ITX.

On the both side of RAM PCB 4 memory chips attached. After initially on DDR3L-1600 memory Transcend TS512MSK64W6H receives a reduced supply voltage of 1.35 V. The temperature of the kit was about 40 °C, which is about 10 °C lower than that of full-length strips standard DDR3, during the testing process. According to specification, maximum temperature at which the set DDR3L-1600 Transcend TS512MSK64W6H allowed to operate is 95 °C.

Each memory module used 8 chips of 512 MB ​​each, manufactured by Micron. On one plate used chip labeled D9QVG, and the second - D9QBJ, which differ only revision. SPD EEPROM chip identified by the marking “4026 8305″ failed.

Not much information was given on the memory modules, only the effective speed 1600 MHz, the volume of a single module is 4 GB and its configuration Rank 1 x 8 banks.

Technical information can be obtained using special tools, using utility Thaiphoon Burner, which is designed specifically for diagnosis of memory modules. Below you can see full report on the specifications. Note ability to work both at the voltage of 1.35 V and at 1.5 V, thereby greatly increasing their compatibility with commercially available devices.

Testing Performance:

To test the performance of the modules we have used Intel Core i3-3240T and Intel DQ77KB motherboard.

Processor Intel Core i3-3240T (LGA1155, 2,90 GHz, L3 12 MB) C1E: enable Motherboard Intel DQ77KB (Socket LGA1155) Cooler ZALMAN CNPS12X Hard Disk Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 ST3500418AS, 500 GB Power Supply Unit COOLER MASTER Silent Pro M700 RS-700-AMBA-D3 700W ATX12V V2.3 80 PLUS BRONZE

Opponent in testing performed a set of DDR3-1333 TwinMOS 9DECBMIB 4 GB (2 x 2 GB).

Model Speed, MHz Set of delays Transcend TS512MSK64W6H 1066 7-7-7-19 1333 9-9-9-24 1600 11-11-11-28 TwinMOS 9DECBMIB 1066 7-7-7-20 1333 9-9-9-24 1600 11-11-11-28

AIDA64 benchmark demonstrates that with increasing speed modules significantly increases the speed of copying / read / write memory. In the transition from the frequency of 1333 MHz to 1600 MHz, these figures increased by 19% / 17% / 17%, respectively, as compared with the speed of 1066 growth was already 47% / 52% / 46%. In other tests, increase system performance was significantly lower and was about 3-10%. As for gaming, despite the use of the integrated graphics core, they had virtually no “responded” to increase the speed of memory.

If we compare the modules DDR3L-1600 Transcend TS512MSK64W6H and DDR3-1333 TwinMOS 9DECBMIB, then both sets were “neck and neck” and in all the tests under the same operating conditions showed comparable results.

Final Though:

Building a compact or upgrading gaming laptop, memory kit Transcend TS512MSK64W6H DDR3L-1600 is an excellent option. It will provide capacity up to 8GB, which will keep in mind multiple applications or folded game and quickly switch between them.

Clock speed is 1600 MHz, in some cases you can get even a small one, but still an advantage over similar operating at a speed of 1333 MHz. Herewith a voltage of 1.35 V and 1.5 V, which improves compatibility with system components, as well as the memory capacity expands in terms of optimization parameters.

Transcend RAM DDR3L-1600 (TS512MSK64W6H) Review If you have limited tasks to do, surf the Internet, work with office applications and watching movies, you should build a compact system instead to spend the money on some kind of noisy PC, because over the past few years mobile processors made a big step in the development.
