Conclusions
Hardware Secrets Golden Award

Patriot PDC2G3500LLK 2 GB dual channel memory kit has the lowest operating latencies for high-capacity memory modules we have reviewed so far.

With them we were able to run up to 250 MHz (DDR500) using 2.5-3-2-5 latencies, an excellent result. Increasing the memory latencies we were able to put this kit running at 270 MHz (DDR540), a clock almost 25% higher than the maximum clock rate labeled by the manufacturer (216.5 MHz/DDR433). Outstanding.

Even though it is new and less traditional on the market, Patriot proved to be an excellent manufacturer of aggressive memory modules targeted to the enthusiast market, comparable (or even better) than traditional manufacturers. To give you an idea, we were able to achieve better overclocking results with PDC2G3500LLK kit than with the competing kit from Corsair, TWINX2048-3500LLPRO, which is also based on Infineon chips (but from the BE-5 revision), where we could achieve up to 260 MHz, 10 MHz less than what we reached with Patriot’s product.

If you need a high amount of RAM with great overclocking capability and low latencies, PDC2G3500LLK kit from Patriot is a terrific option.
