5.0 out of 5 stars Great value ram for people not concerned with max OC, May 17, 2006

This review is from: Crucial Technology 103486 1GB 400Mhz PC3200 DDR RAM - CT12864Z40B (Personal Computers)

Crucial makes some of the best ram in the industry. In fact Crucial ballistix ram is the fastest ram out there and also the most scalable (as in allows different timings, bandwidth etc)

Obviouly this isn't high end ballistix ram but I would hazard a guess that 99% of people couldn't tell the difference in performance. This is great ram at a great cost backed by a great company. Sure it's not PC4000 ram but for some 50mhz (and slower memory timings I might ad) isn't worth an extra $100-$200 this ram is great if you aren't looking to OC the you know what out of it (even then I've heard people get decent oc's with it sometimes)

Crucial makes some of the best ram in the industry. The Ballistix made by Crucial is also great but only usefull if over clocking if your not over clocking it's a waste of money. This was told to me by a guy from Crucial itself.

The 1GB went in without a hitch and was seen by my computer upon booting up after install. This is my second time having to install Ram in any computer bought new anyways. And both times didn't have many problems at all. After my first time of install ever I learn when taking the ram out look at the bottom of the stick holding in place just as you took it out of your computer, you will see a notch at the bottom just insert the new stick the same way. Or you could just look at the bottom of the Ram slot and make sure you insert the ram lined up with the notch on the new ram. Due to poor eye sight for myself I have found taking the old one out and then inserting the sameway with notch makes it easier for me.

The two 1GB memory cards were easy to order, quick to arrive and easy to install. Made a tremendous difference in the running speed of my computer.
