Like the DDR2 kit, we put the DDR3 sticks through the same set of benchmarks too. Results will be slightly different because the CPU is clocked higher at 333MHz x 10 rather than the default 266MHz x 11.

The reference RAM used are Mushkin PC3-14400 sticks which have been set to run 1333MHz also.

Here is the rest of the setup:
- Intel Core 2 Extreme X6800 2.93GHz @ 3.33GHz
- ASUS Blitz Extreme
- ASUS EN8800 GTS 640MB
- Seagate 7200.9 80GB SATA
- Silverstone Zeus 650W




































The Aeneon DDR3 kit was faster than the Mushkin kit in very benchmark, except for 3DMark2001 SE. The difference is noticeable in the SuperPI 8M run and the ScienceMark 2.0 memory bandwidth test - the Aeneon kit was able to get a 2-second lead on SuperPI and a 100MB/sec faster bench in ScienceMark 2.0.
