Cellshock

Cellshock is a company that has rarely targeted its products to overclockers. These modules aren’t widely available in stores or online, so you might have a tough time getting your hands on them. Nevertheless, we still benchmarked the modules and listed the results for readers to see.

Model DDR2-800
Package

Kit 2x1Gb

Timings 4-4-4-12
Operating Frequency DDR2-800
Voltage 2.10-2.20
Product Info Link

The German modules came modestly packaged in plastic with little decoration. Both modules were laid on top of each other and slightly inclined.

As the manufacturer indicates on their website, it is no secret that the modules use the Micron D9 GMH chip. Although Cellshock doesn’t go as far as other companies to offer a Lifetime Warranty for the memory kit, their warranty period of 5 years should be sufficient considering that current high-end memory will probably be obsolete by that time.

Maximum Clock Frequency, timings 4-4-4-12
Model DDR2-800
Max Frequency [MHz] 520
Voltage [V] 2.45

We were able to reach a maximum frequency 30% higher compared to the default speed. Staying true to the trend for our other D9-equipped modules, the Cellshock DDR2-800 required the maximum Voltage our motherboard could provide in order for the overclock to be stable.
