@ 2006/11/03Many readers have been looking for DDR2-800 as memory prices sky-rocketed over the last couple of months. Now that memory prices are dropping, there is less pressure to save a few bucks with DDR2-800 instead of top-line DDR2-1000 or DDR2-1066. However, the question still remains whether a step down to DDR2-800 will save a few bucks while delivering performance about as good as the top DDR2 memory.
Almost every major memory manufacturer has DDR2-800 parts, but the ones of greatest interest to hobbyists are often those from well-known high-end memory makers. G.Skill seemed to come out of nowhere a couple of years ago to establish themselves as a high-end memory maker. They got exposure with Forum targeting and a sharply focused advertising campaign. G.Skill distributes a full line of desktop and notebook memory products, and the line includes a 2GB DDR2-800 kit at a mid-level price in the $300 range.
