Hipro Tech DDR Maximiser

[willawake]

its a device which supplies external voltage to ram for overclocking purposes..



VDimm up to 4.2volts for DDRI
VTT control up to 2.1volts
VDimm up to 3volts for DDRII
125 Watts (160 Watts Peak) power output under load provided for your memory system
55 watts power output under load for VTT
Voltage stability of ±2mV to ±5mV (0.002V – 0.005V) under FULL LOAD
Overload, overvoltage and overheat protection

not something i would buy personally but the reason i am interested is because it is designed by a Greek company. costs 159 euro here.

- Filtering this voltage in a way that is close to perfection, by using ceramic capacitors for the RF (Radio Frequency) and large electrolytic capacitors and coils for the voltage spikes and the various fluctuations.

hope they did not use crap caps!

looks like there is not 1 version for all ram but instead different versions of the unit for DDR, DDR2 and DDR3 respectively. but they will also offer upgrade pcbs at low cost.

Re: Hipro Tech DDR Maximiser

I've seen a thermaltake devices that does the same thing, but it's in a DIMM form factor.. There's no way in hell i would use that.. One little "oops" and there goes your RAM and motherboard... Of course people who buy this that blows their shit up with it will of course want warranty support from the manufacturer...


The thing is, the vast majority of RAM chips today internally drop the voltage supplied them to a lower level.. I might give my DIMM's a 0.1V increase in VDIMM, say from 2.5 to 2.6V, but that's all..

Re: Hipro Tech DDR Maximiser

I'm always scared of overclocking. I would only use that if I could cool my computer to superconductivity.

Now where did I put my liquid nitrogen........

Re: Hipro Tech DDR Maximiser

That will make the VR for the ram on the board shit it's self, 4.2V!!!!!! that'll blow your ram to bits, the VR for the ram and the northbridge. Well I guess if you like blowing lost of money on crap just to watch your system let out it's magical smoke then go for it, but as far as I'm concerned, as well with others, this is a bake your system garbage device.

I give it the award.
