Geil Evo Veloce ( 2133+ )

[Woomack]

Since I can't find any reviews then I have question if anyone was testing 2133 10-11-11-30 or 2400 10-12-12-30 Geil Evo Veloce and can say anything about them ? Or maybe there will be OCF review in some not far future ?

Point is that I see 2133 10-11-11-30 2x4GB kit for ~$70 inc. our local 23% tax so in the USA price will be ~$57 and thats much lower than GSkill TridentX 2400 with similar SPD settings ( I'm counting that 2133 and 2400 are on the same IC ).
Of course in this case G.Skill provides better quality, support etc but still I'm curious how its working.

Don't have any right now, but I'll certainly try to get a pair.

A Patriot 2133 kit should be arriving today IIRC. Corsair said they'd send one of their new Dom kits but nothing has come of that yet. Might as well see if Geil can send a kit for review.

I couldn't resist and already ordered one of these Geil kits ( 2133 10-11-11 ) ... not that I need it , eh 11 DDR3 kits at home ...
Geil heatspreader designers should be kicked ... next memory which is hurting my eyes but at least is cheap
Patriot is really disapointing with latest series. I have 2x4GB 1866 and well ... hard to say that they are overclocking ( the same as most of their other memory in random reviews ).
New Dominators should be good but we can expect that most of them will be on samsungs so 1866-2400 kits will hit 2600 and not much more <- kinda spoiler ... 2400+ are too expensive but I wish to see their top kits in action

Is it Patriot Viper 3 2133 11-11-11 1.5V ? Can be interesting for oc.

Pretty sure that's the kit, yes.

If I won't be too lazy then I make review of Veloce 2133 10-11-11 ... still don't know if it's 1.5 or 1.65V
there is already waiting something for editing ( if I marked it right )

@hokie , I saw some results in the web but I still wish to see if it can make more

I knew there was a reason I was hesitant to send that. Thanks for the confirmation ED.

2x 4GB 2133 10-11-11-30 1.50V

15 min in my hands and I already know what IC is inside ... but I won't tell you ... won't be able to test it till tomorrow ( if I find time tomorrow )

Patriot Viper 3 2133 11-11-11-27 1.50V are about the same

photo from hexus.net review
black PCB and nice looking heatspreader .. Geil should learn from Patriot

fast test on box cooler , no tweaking vdimm 1.75V, VCCSA 1.15V , VCCIO 1.2V
2133 10-11-11-30 2T 1.50V @ 2800 12-14-14-38 2T 1.75V
In Hynix datasheet is info that these modules can work up to 1.80V so 1.75V is still not that bad. My cpu's imc is hitting thermal wall @2850 and till that it's booting but isn't stable enough to pass spi32m.



Edit:
2800 12-14-14-38 1T 1.75V also passed Spi32m

Little update but without screenshots as I forgot to make them and already changed setup:
2400 11-12-11-32 1N 1.65V = Memtest passed
2600 11-13-12-34 1N 1.65V = Memtest passed
2800 11-14-13-36 1N 1.775V = Memtest failed but it's passing almost everything else
2800 CL12-14-14 also failed memtest so I think it's more because of IMC that is working on air at about 2850 max.
It's still nice result for 2133 memory

As I already mentioned in other thread this memory has some problems to work on rated 1.50V and how Geil solved this issue ? ... changed info on their site to 1.65V: http://www.geil.com.tw/products/showSpec/id/366
while maybe 2 weeks ago it was 1.50, 1.65V ( depends which kit ).
To make it stable on my board I have to set 1.52V while my kit has 1.50V on the heatspreader's label.
That's just as an info if you decide to buy this memory.

nothing better than answer for your own post but well ... here is one more screenshot , this time @ ~2700 10-13-12-33 1N and tight sub timings



btw short review should be published soon ...
