ADATA is not a memory brand we're really familiar with here in North America, its main audience has been Asia. The company is now making an effort to catch our attention, so let's test first, then form our opinions.

Memory Benchmarks: 3DMark06, Quake 4, FEAR
3DMark05 is
best suited for the latest generation of DirectX9.0 graphics cards. It is the
first benchmark to require a DirectX9.0 compliant hardware with support for
Pixel Shaders 2.0 or higher! By combining high quality 3D tests, CPU tests,
feature tests, image quality tools, and much more, 3DMark05 is a premium
benchmark for evaluating the latest generation of gaming
hardware.

3DMark06 results are flatsville. Flat, flat, flat. Looks like having a huge pool of
bandwidth is not as big a deal in this test.
Quake 4 is
the latest shooter from ID and is based on the Doom 3 engine. Tweaked to for
more eye candy, Quake 4 promises to be tougher on videocards and systems than
its predecessor was. Quake 4 also does not have a 60 fps limiter like Doom 3,
with the Ultra setting, graphic textures can surpass the 500MB mark! Each test
is run three times and with the third run being recorded.

Quake 4 framerates are pretty good at stock speeds. The A-DATA memory
only trails the Corsair DOMINATOR by a few frames. Overclocking just the memory
boosts framerates, but perhaps not enough for you to notice.

FEAR is
Sierra's latest first person shooter which relies heavily on DirectX 9 features.
With its "Soft Shadows" feature enabled, even the fastest videocards run at a
crawl, FEAR is definitely the new benchmark for future FPS games to follow.

Framerates are close all around, and the different memory speeds only increase
the results marginally.
It's great to see how individual memory stacks up against the competition
under stock configurations, but we're also going to show how it compares when
overclocked next.
