Anyone remember OCZ brand (not SSDs)?

[DeathtoGnomes]

Guess no one noticed the references in my OP. I'll give this one out: the actual voltage output is 0.40 volts.

 

[Mr.Scott]

Ironically, I just replaced an OCZ 700 last week. Got 7 or 8 years out of it. Still have a few sets of OCZ DDR ram and still have a DDR Booster in the original package. All fully functional.

That DDR Booster is something I would love to see in action.

Best I can show you right now.
Overclocking nostalgia at it's finest.

 

[TheoneandonlyMrK]

I still have an ocz 700 psu (ive fixed once)and some watercooled(or not ) ram in use and a pciex ssd i can't part with

 

[Mussels]

I used to do reviews of OCZ products for a now-defunct website
DDR1 600Mhz with that DDR voltage booster was madness for its era, as well as the PSU's with a screwdriver adjustable voltage

 

[grammar_phreak]

Yeah I remember them. OCZ was a big deal over 10 years ago. Back in early 2009 I bought a DDR3-1600 cl9 3x2gb Kit of OCZ RAM that had no XMP profile. Last year I bought an old Core i7-920 system that had an OCZ DDR3-1600 cl7 3x2gb Kit installed in the system. When I saw that kit of RAM in that system along with an old Corsair HX1000 I knew the original builder spared no expense.

Both sets of the OCZ RAM worked well. No complaints. I was able to clock the non-XMP memory to 1600mhz with 9-9-9-27 timings.

Ahhhh, now I just remembered that they refused to honor the Rebate on the RAM I purchased.

That looks just like the RAM I had that didn't work for me...

[ViperXTR]

Still using OCZ Stealth X Stream II 600w PSU, got it from 2010 i think, still powering my system, then again, FSP is the oem internals anyway

 

[Durvelle27]

Still have some of their RAM

 

[FordGT90Concept]

I had triple channel Ram in a 1366 system a while back.
I remember wanting some many years ago when they were used by Overclockers etc but I could never afford them.

Same. They ended up in my server now.

I have an OCZ active memory cooler too that's no longer in use (was used to cool the FB-DIMMs on previous server) but it still works. Although come to think of it, I think I replaced the fans because one died.

Had the same OCZ Gold RAM in my X58. Which I sort of fried with i7 920 overclock because RAM auto voltage connection. Then I bought Corsair Dominator.

 

[LDNL]

My OCZ Vertex 2 50GB SSD died early this year. Bought it in 2010 and it cost ~250$. It was unfortunally my main Windows drive and the read/writes were almost 25TB on that b*tch

 

[qu4k3r]

I always loved that ram, they were good and fairly priced.
I had 2x1gb ddr2 800mhz platinum and still have 2x2gb ddr3 1600mhz gold.

 

[sepheronx]

I had OCZ DDR and DDR2 memory long ago. Greatest ram sticks I ever used.

 

[Bones]

Have a few sets of DDR from them and a waterblock, namely an OCZ Hydroflow I've been using for the past 8 or 9 years and it's still working great.
Well enough in fact I normally run it period, even in competing in OC'ing comps whenever I want to use a watercooled setup.

 

[Voluman]

I think at the time I was dabbling with some Corsair XMS3200XL

I had those too, they were awesome.

I have ddr2 Ocz OCZ2P11004GK Platinum (2x2gb PC2 8800)

 

[Static~Charge]

I remember MiniScribe .

Mmmm, 5.25-inch, full-height hard drives....

 

[dirtyferret]

I remember them buying my favorite PSU brand, PC Power & Cooling, and running them into the ground. I also remember their Fatal1ty line and going "wtf is a Fatal1ty"

If you go to a microcenter, they still carry some of their PSUs in stock (sold under the Firepower brand and I think as refurbished units)

 

[John Naylor]

OCZs PSUs were made by ...

StealthXStream 2 - Fortron
Z < or = 650 - Forton
Z > 650 Sirfa
ModXStream Pro (400) - CWT
ModXStream Pro (500 - 700) - Sirfa
CoreXStream - Sirfa
Fatal1ty - All but the 700FTY (Impervio) - Sirfa
ZS - Sirfa
ZT and ZX - Great Wall

Some of tham garnered 9.5 Build Quality / performance ratings on JonnyGuru

Damn shame too. PCP&C were the best back in the day. Bought a 425w Turbo Cool in 2003 to power my nForce2 system (still have receipt). To this day the unit still holds 2% variance under load.

9.5 ratings were probably the Fortron/FSP/Sparkle based units.

 

[sneekypeet]

Kind of surprised nobody brought up that nanotube cooler they made.

 

[Mr.Scott]

I forgot about the Hydrojet.

 

[R-T-B]

Says something about it's market impact, I'd wager... heh.

Bet they sold more Cryo-Z's than Hydrojet's.
