Benchmarks: PCMark2002, PCMark04

PCMark2002 Source: FutureMark

PCMark 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.

Memory: Points Ranking
2x 512MB PQI Turbo PQI25400-1GDB (200/533) 12774
2x 512MB Crucial Ballistix PC2-5400 (200/533) 12804
2x 512MB Mushkin PC2-4200 (200/533) 12793
2x 512MB Mushkin PC2-4200 (231/614) 13036

These are some very respectable PCMark bandwidth scores, although the overclocked score seems a bit on the low side.

PCMark04 Source: FutureMark

PCMark04 is the latest version of the popular PCMark series. PCMark04 is an application-based benchmark and a premium tool for measuring overall PC performance. It uses portions of real applications instead of including very large applications or using specifically created code. This allows PCMark04 to be a smaller installation as well as to report very accurate results.

2x 512MB PQI Turbo PQI25400-1GDB (200/533) 5321
2x 512MB Crucial Ballistix PC2-5400 (200/533) 5372

2x 512MB Mushkin PC2-4200 (231/614) 5903

The memory score does not increase as much as I expected it to with overclocking, which is a bit odd.
