Test: Exceleram EP3001A DDR3 PC3-10666

Konklusion
 

Jeg skal ærligt indrømme at jeg aldrig selv ville have overvejet at købe sådan et sæt ram, hvis det ikke var fordi jeg havde prøvet dem selv. Jeg er imponeret over hvad de kan præstere til så lav en pris. Navnet Exceleram er nok mere kendt i tyskland end herhjemme, men hvis jeg skal sammenligne med noget de fleste kender, så vil jeg pege på Kingston Value serien, der også ind imellem kan overraske. Jeg ved ikke om der findes andre tilsvarende lavpris ram på markedet med et lige så stort OC potentiale, men der er brugt high-end Powerchip rambrikker på printet, og 2222MHz CL10 ved 1,65V er altså godkendt i min bog.

EP3001A er 2GB stænger der sælges enkeltvis. De kræver ikke mere end 1.5v for at yde det de skal og mere til til en lav pris. Der er brugt de samme Powerchip rambrikker som vi ofte har set på langt dyrere mærkevarer, til gengæld er designet lidt skrabet.

Design/Layout - 3
Designet er ikke meget at snakke om. Intet fancy her. Det er et 6 lags print og modulerne er ret tynde. Køleprofiler er der ingen af, så de fremstår som standard OEM ram.

Ydelse - 4
Ydelsen viser sig til gengæld at være kanon i forhold til prisen. Efter lidt små justeringer i bios kan de faktisk yde det samme som meget dyrere ram fra de store kendte mærker. Vi har testet ydelsen på en P67 platform og den er godkendt. Og leger man med overclocking så er her et billigt alternativ til mærkevarerne. Det er jo knap nok ærgerligt hvis man brænder dem af.

Pris - 5
Prisen ligger omkring 150kr per 2GB på nettet. Jeg synes det er en kanon pris. Dvs. du skal kun slippe 300kr for 4gb ram der render over 2000MHz. Alle tiders sæt hvis man gerne vil bruge pengene på noget andet spændende i sin maskine.

UK summary

I would never have bought a set like this, if it was not because i got to test them. I was impressed with the performance for such a low price. Exceleram is better known in Germany than in Denmark. Nerveless, if I was to compare them with ar known brand I would say they compare to Kingston Value Ram although I do not think there are other similar priced budget ram on the market with similar overclocking potential. I Managed to get them up to 2222 Mhz CL10 at 1.65V - that is a test passed in my book.

Innovation/Teknologi - 4
EP3001A are 2Gb sticks that are sold separately, and only need 1.5v for them to perform what they are sopposed to and more. They are ideal for those who want to build a low cost machine with lots of Ram. Exceleram are using the same Powerchip 128*8 chips as many high-end memory modules. The design is down to the bone, probably to make it affordable.

Design/Layout - 4
The design is not much to talk about. Nothing fancy here. They have 6 layer PCBs and are pretty thin. No Heat spreaders on them, and they look pretty much like cheap OEM modules.

Performance - 4
The performance is great compared to the price. After a few adjustments in the Bios, they could actually perform as good as the more expensive Ram on the market. We have tested 2x2GB on a P67 platform, and they pass with flying colors. If you like overclocking this is a great alternative to the known brands. It is hardly a shame if you should fry one by accident.

Pris - 5
The price for 1x2gb is around 150kr on the net. which i think is a good price. Which means you will use only 300kr for 4gb ram that will run a speeds beyond 2000MHz. Leaving you able to use your money on something more exiting like ie a bigger SSD when building a new machine.
