Crucial Ballistix Tracers DDR 500 (PC4000) 2GB Memory Kit

Color me impressed. Not only will these sticks ensure a smooth computing experience in RAM intensive applications, but they've proven to be very flexible as well. It's no small 'feat' for a 2GB kit to fill the shoes of tight timed kits half the size (pun intended), but Crucial has managed to do just that. Running my testbed's 4400+ X2 at stock speed, the Ballistix Tracers held impressive 2-2-2-5 latencies without touching the voltage. A slight bump to 2.9V had my processor happily chugging away at 2.4GHz emulating a 4800+ X2, with latencies still considered tight at 2.5-2-2-6. When increased past the rated DDR500 spec, the Tracers had no trouble holding steady at a frequency of 260MHz, putting my processor at 2.6GHz. For those that have long since gone cross-eyed keeping up with AMD and Intel's nomenclature, that's basically an FX-60 minus the unlocked multiplier!
