Crucial Technology Announces 1GHz Ballistix Memory; Low-Latency, High-Speed Modules Maximize Performance of Intel(R) 925 and 955 Chipsets.


MERIDIAN, Idaho Meridian is the second-largest city in Ada County, Idaho, United States and the third-largest in the state. As of the 2000 Census the population of Meridian was 34,919 (2006 estimate: 59,832)[1].  -- Crucial Technology today announced the immediate availability of its leading-edge Crucial(R) Ballistix(TM) high-performance memory modules, including 1GHz PC2-8000 (DDR (Double Data Rate) Refers to an SDRAM memory chip that increases performance by doubling the effective data rate of the frontside bus. For more details, see SDRAM.

2-1000), the fastest Ballistix module to date. In addition, Crucial is releasing PC2-6400 (DDR2-800) and PC2-5300 (DDR2-667) low-latency memory, designed specifically for computer gamers and power users seeking maximum system performance and stability at a competitive price-point. The new DDR2 PC2-6400 and PC2-5300 modules are optimized to provide leading-edge performance in motherboards based on both the Intel(R) 925XE and 955X Express chipsets.

Crucial's Ballistix high-performance DDR2 line now includes the following modules in both 512 megabyte (MB) and 1 gigabyte (GB) densities:

--Crucial Ballistix PC2-8000 (DDR2-1000), CL5-5-5-15, 2.2V

--Crucial Ballistix PC2-6400 (DDR-800), CL4-4-4-12, 2.1V

--Crucial Ballistix PC2-5300 (DDR2-667), CL3-3-3-12, 2.1V

"Consumers today seem to have an opinion on whether high frequency or low latency Low latency allows human-unnoticeable delays between an input being processed and the corresponding output providing real time characteristics. This can be especially important for internet connections utilizing services such as online gaming and VOIP - VOIP is not as important as  is the more important attribute for leading-edge memory modules -- the Crucial Ballistix line offers the best of both worlds," said John Stroozas, Crucial Technical Director of Engineering.

All Crucial Ballistix modules are available for purchase directly from Crucial's Web site at www.crucial.com and come with a limited lifetime warranty, multilingual user guide, Crucial's award-winning customer support, free technical support, and free shipping (for a limited time) on orders within the contiguous United States United States, officially United States of America, republic (2005 est. pop. 295,734,000), 3,539,227 sq mi (9,166,598 sq km), North America. The United States is the world's third largest country in population and the fourth largest country in area. .
