Ballistix and Tracer DDR
Module performance is verified by testing each Ballistix DDR DIMM in the three motherboards shown in the table below. The modules are tested in pairs at the front side bus (FSB) speeds specified for each module type. In addition, the chipset, CPU, and BIOS revisions are listed for each motherboard setup.

Don't forget...
We put great effort into testing our Ballistix modules in the configurations detailed above, but keep in mind that some system configurations may not operate at the published Crucial Ballistix memory speed and timing settings. Actual performance may vary based on configuration, usage, and manufacturing variability. Overclocking, running your system faster than published speed, or otherwise modifying your system timing may result in damage to computer components. If you plan to operate your hardware outside of specifications, do so at your own risk.
