Meridian, Idaho, and Glasgow, UK, April 10, 2007� Crucial Technology today announced the immediate availability of 1066MHz Ballistix® and Ballistix Tracer® DDR2 modules. The new DDR2 PC2-8500 modules broaden Crucial's high-performance memory product lines and are optimized to provide excellent performance on newer, cutting-edge motherboards.
Along with Ballistix PC2-6400 and PC2-8000 modules, these new 1066MHz modules utilize Enhanced Performance Profiles (EPP) memory technology by simplifying overclocking in EPP-supported systems. EPP technology allows preconfigured performance memory settings to be built into high-performance memory DIMMs, increasing overall PC system performance.
"For demanding customers looking for excellent performance, faster speeds and lower latencies, Ballistix memory is the ideal solution — and the new DDR2 PC2-8500 modules are no exception. Plus, they're backed by a limited-lifetime warranty and the stellar support that's synonymous with the Crucial name," said Jeremy Mortenson, Crucial's DRAM product marketing manager.
Crucial Ballistix and Ballistix Tracer DDR2 PC2-8500 memory is available in 1GB modules, as well as in 2GB kits, at http://www.crucial.com/ballistix or http://www.crucial.com/uk/ballistix.
