Overclockers Australia ha pubblicato un articolo riguardo alle nuove memorie PC133 e PC150 rev.1.2 KingMax; si č trattato in particolare di numerose incompatibilitā mostrate dai precedenti moduli KingMax rev.1.0 e rev.1.1, e pubblicata quindi un'ampia sezione su come riconoscerli. Basterā infatti cercare la scritta serigrafata sul PCB dei moduli, mentre se non troveremo alcuna scritta si tratterā della rev.1.0. Nei moduli rev.1.2 , quelli recensiti, le incompatibilitā paiono esser state invece del tutto risolte. L'articolo, che comprende anche alcuni benchmarks in comparazione con i moduli Corsair PC133 CAS2, č disponibile a <a href=http://www.overclockers.com.au/techstuff/r_kingmax/>questo indirizzo</a><BR><BR>
<blockquote><i>I admit, I approached this review with some scepticism. Having been frustrated by compatability problems with KingMax before, I was prepared for the worst. However, it really seems that KingMax, with their v1.2 PCB, have sorted out any compatability problems they were having. Based on my experience with the v1.2 PC133 and PC150, I'd have no problem recommending either.

Price wise, the KingMax also fares well. Eyo list the PC133 as $291 inc GST, the PC150 $355 inc GST. This is a pretty hefty price jump for the performance difference I've seen. Compare this to Realtime's price of $455 for the Corsair CAS2 PC133 and, by the graph above, the KingMax looks like something of a bargain. There's no denying the Corsair will go faster, and it's arguably higher quality, being intended more for the server market than home users. Still, as I said before, it's a personal decision as to whether the extra bucks are worth it to you or not. </i></blockquote>
