The DDR2-1066 memory is available as Ballistix Tracer with integrated LED lighting and as Ballistix without LED’s, so the choice for the additional modding feature is left to the buyer. One thing is certain, the modules would … Continue reading Crucial Ballistix Tracer DDR2-1066/PC2-8500 2GB Kit BL2KIT12864AL1065 Memory Review →

Mushkin shows with their current XP2-8500 DDR2-1066 memory modules that it’s possible to get high performance for low cost. Because ocinside.de was able to overclock an AMD Athlon 64 3000+ Socket AM2 CPU to approx. 3000 MHz and the enormously high memory overclocking up to 600 MHz (DDR2-1200) was an important factor for these results.
