OCZ FlexXLC PC2-9200(OCZ2FX11502GK, 2x 1 GB)

FlexXLC stands for Xtreme Liquid Convection, which basically means that the memory modules come with a heat sink module that is ready to be connected to a liquid cooling solution. Another improvement compared to many other memory modules is the 8-layer PCB, which improves signal integrity and thus should allow for better overclocking results.

There are versions rated for PC2-9600, PC2-9200 (which we got) and PC2-6400. Our DDR2-1150 DIMMs were rated for CL5-5-5-18 timings, and the only improvement we could achieve was CL5-5-5-15. We could increase the clock speed stably at up to 622 MHz (DDR2-1244), which required 2.5 V. All of this was achieved with conventional air cooling. Applying a liquid cooling solution is very likely to yield at least some 20-30 MHz more clock speed. We recommend going for the faster PC2-9600 part if you really want to go ballistic.

OCZ's FlexXLC is SLI-ready, meaning that it will automatically run at ideal timings on an nForce 600 platform.

Speeds And Timings

The memory clock speed of 571 MHz is close to the 575 MHz (DDR2-1150 or PC2-9200), at which the FlexXLC was specified. Any timing setting below CL5-5-5-15 did not run in reliable fashion.

The highest memory speed we achieved with the FlexXLC was DDR2-1244, running at CL5-5-5-15 timings and 2.5 V. However, Call of Duty crashed a few times at these settings during our testing.
