Kingston PC1066 RDRAM Memory Review
Kingston PC1066 RDRAM Memory Review - PCSTATS
While I'm not sure if adding a fan is really going to bring the temperature down into a more stable region, it did offer a bit of piece of mind.

Benchmarks

SiSoft Sandra 2002 Plus SP1
PCMark2002
3DMark2001 SE
Quake III Arena

Sisoft Sandra 2002 Source: Sandra

Sandra is designed to test the theoretical power of a complete system and individual components. The numbers taken though are again, purely theoretical and may not represent real world performance.

Memory Benchmark

1. Integer ALU - 133 MHz FSB 3383 MB/s
1a. Integer ALU - 159 MHz FSB 3385 MB/s
2. Float FPU - 133 MHz FSB 3378 MB/s
2a. Float FPU - 159 MHz FSB 3375 MB/s

As we can see here, the availbe memory bandwidth both at 133 MHz and 159 MHz is about the same because the memory running at 159 MHz is at 300 MHz RDRAM mode.

PCMark 2002 Source: MadOnion

PCMark is a new benchmark from our pals at MadOnion which a whole system benchmark. It can be used on desktop PC's, Laptops and even Workstations and tests everyday computing from home to office usage. PCMark specifically stresses the CPU, memory subsystem, graphics subsystem, hard drives, WindowsXP GUI (if WinXP is used), video performance and even laptop batteries. This benchmark was released March 12, 2002 and can be downloaded from Madonion if you would like to give it a test run on your computer for comparisons sake...

Memory PCMarks Ranking
1.

RDRAM - 133 MHz FSB

5898
2.

RDRAM - 159 MHz FSB

5936

Just like we saw in Sandra, the RDRAM performs about the same in terms of theoretical memory bandwidth and usage.
