Comments about Crucial 1GB, Ballistix 240-pin DIMM, DDR2 PC2-6400,:

Built up a PC 4 years ago for my son to use for gaming,school work and now for an IT degree in University. Bought a pair of Crucial RAM sticks, DDR2 were the best for my budget then. They were easy to fit and gave excellent performance. After 4 years hard work one of them developed a fault. Crucial still had the same RAM in stock. Bought a "like for like" replacement, [...] fitted easily, up and running again in a few days.

Comments about Crucial 1GB, Ballistix 240-pin DIMM, DDR2 PC2-6400,:

This memory was used to replace two Ballistix Tracer sticks, purchased in June 2007, which had suddenly died, preventing the computer in question from booting. So ... good memory replacement, but shame that the original Crucial memory failed. Is three years a good life?

Comments about Crucial 1GB, Ballistix 240-pin DIMM, DDR2 PC2-6400,:

I used the Crucial Compatability Checker and found this 800MHZ option so I bought it, once installed it showed only 667MHZ. I checked the specs on my 9150 (yes I know I should've done that first) and found it only supports upto 667MHZ, so not much improvement on the 533MHZ I had before.

Comments about Crucial 1GB, Ballistix 240-pin DIMM, DDR2 PC2-6400,:

Great value and works well.

However, I've had two of these DIMMs fail with Bad Memory reported after about 9 months continual 24/7 use. Both DIMMs failed within 2 months of each other.

I've had a good experience with Crucial RAM in the past so bought new ones and so far had no problems. I'll put it down to a bad batch.

Only minor complaint with the Ballistix range is the latest DIMMs have a flimsy stuck-on heatsink where as the older range had a better quality version that clamped over the ICs.

Comments about Crucial 1GB, Ballistix 240-pin DIMM, DDR2 PC2-6400,:

I wanted it for increased gaming performance and for better internet speed. I can now play Call of Duty 4 quite happily, but other than that there has been no real difference between the 2 of these that I bought and my previous default 514MB RAM.
