Crucial Awards

Best Memory Manufacturer
Personal Computer World, January 2007
"With huge files and hungry apps, high-performance memory is vital to system performance, especially if you're a keen overclocker. From standard memory to the Ballistix memory often used in PCW's Hands On Performance column, Crucial offers a vast range. Readers voted for the company by a margin of almost 2:1 over the nearest competitor in this category. Price and customer service were important factors in its success, as too was Crucial's website memory selector, mentioned by many readers, which makes it easy to find the memory chips to match any system."

 

Crucial Ballistix Tracer DDR2-1066 2GB Kit
orthy.de Test Gold Award, 12th July 2008
"The Ballistix Tracer 2GB 1066 MHz kit is not only a unique feast for the eyes, a modder's dream, but a seriously well-made kit, too. The EPP is perfect, the kit needs 10% less VDimm than officially advertised at 1066 MHz and provides a rock-solid operation at 1130 MHz with 2.26V Great look, great performance, great kit. It fully deserves the Orthy.de Test Gold award." (Reviewer's translation) Full review
