OCZ is known for its high performance memory (and the high pricing ofcourse ).
When I bought my computer, I intended it to be an Overclock machine. I thought that I'll buy some OCZ modules, but then I realized that I don't need one. There are many companies out there that manufacture great memory in great prices. ADATA, Crucial, GSkill, PQI... Companies like OCZ and Corsair are for people who... have money, lets say it like that.

I like GEIL the best presonally. OCZ isnt bad.. and there is a difference between the quality of their chips and the competition.

Nice, I have been looking for a good memory upgrade for a while now. These might do the trick. Although I have never used OCZ before, I have heard that they are very good although expensive.

I hope they make this memory compatable with pre-built machines from the big companies. Make sure if you upgrade to this powerful ram with overclocking capability, you have a custom built fast machine. Because ive experienced modules like this(HyperX, OCZ, Ballistix) and they seem to not be compatiable in machines such as Dells, GTWAYs, HPs, and Compaqs. Now I know you cant overclk these machines, but they should still work at set speed.

DDR2 is finally going to the norm of the memory now that amd is finally going to support it. It's nice to see the high performance DDr2 being released.

Its nice to have all this new memory, but the max has become stuck at 2GB. That's not nearly going to be enough when Vista and the rest come out. Hopefully either DDr2 or DDR will fix this though i don't really care which is used even though i prefer the former.
