Default Crucial Ballistix Tracer DDR2 1066 review by TechGage

While this stuff didn't exactly kick but when compared to other high-end RAM that they've reviewed, It is inexpensive- and very flashy with dazzling oprange led effects along the spines of the modules, and blue at the base. Good value and if you want that extra flash, then these are your RAM.


Blurry pic of the LEDs along the spine.

It's got lights, I'm buying it!

Wait a second it's RAM it dont need no stinking lights
Still not a bad kit, I'd take somemore performance before bling though any day.
