OCZ intros memory with enhanced performance profiles

OCZ announced the PC2-7200 Platinum series, the firm's first memory line that integrates enhanced performance profiles (EPP). According to the company, the PC2-7200 devices are "designed with advanced SPD settings to allow compatible motherboards to recognize and utilize the added operation data, ultimately increasing the performance potential of the entire platform."

When installed on a compatible (Nvidia nForce 590 SLI-based) motherboard, OCZ's EPP modules immediately operate at 900 MHz DDR2 with 4-4-3 timings without the customary BIOS adjustments, the company said. The devices are offered in single 1 GB versions and 2 GB dual-channel (2 x 1 GB) packages. Pricing has not been announced.
