Fremont, CA, and Glasgow, UK, December 02, 2009 � Lexar Media, a leading global provider of memory products for digital media, today announced the availability of Crucial 4GB DDR3-1333MHz (PC3-10600) non-ECC UDIMM memory modules, enabling power users to max out their systems with 16GB of RAM. These new modules are compatible with the latest generation of Intel and AMD desktop processors – the Intel Core™ i5 and Intel Core i7 processors, as well as the AMD AM3 processors.
