ADATA 8GB 2000 XPG DDR3 Memory Review Version 2.0 (AX3U2000GC4G9B-DG2)

This version of the script has been thoroughly tested on Adobe Photoshop CS5 and CS4 and is compatible with Photoshop 7. It is important to document however that different versions of Photoshop give different end results. Adobe have been fine tuning the program over the years and enhancing specific filters and algorithms for better performance (some filters were rewritten during the CS2 time period). This means ultimately that comparing times with users running other versions of Photoshop is not going to give consistent results.

All results were gained from Adobe Photoshop CS5 64bit exe on Windows 7 64 bit ultimate and are marked in seconds. Lower times are better.

Script times reduced by around 7 seconds when moving from generic 1333mhz memory to 2000mhz ADATA gaming memory. Our additional manual overclock helped reduce the overall time by half a second, not really noticeable under real world conditions.

$80 Holiday

Xbox abandons $80 price tag for the rest of its Holiday line-up

Following the surprise announcement last month that Microsoft’s upcoming holiday titles would retail for $80 (starting with The Outer Worlds 2), the console maker backtracked on this decision, instead charging the more ‘standard’ $70. It seems as though Obsidian’s upcoming RPG isn’t the only game being lowered to $70 – with all of Microsoft’s upcoming Holiday titles dropping back down to the previous industry standard.

  1. 140 quid for 8GB of 2000mhz memory? damn thats really good.

  2. Good deal for the price. memory prices are really low right now, cant stay this way forever. wonder if the japan disaster will make them go up soon.

  3. Very good all round purchase, not sure I would buy from ADATA however, never heard of them 🙂

  4. biggest problem I have is what about ADATA uk warranty? they are one of the many far eastern makes I know very little about. last time I ended up with patriot memory it took a dump and no one helped me replace it. so I ended up out money with a dead product. ill stick with one of the big UK names for suppotr im afraid. I can find no warranty terms about ADATA online for UK.

  5. Oh my! This thing amazing!!
