New memory standards don't come out all that often, and when they do it takes a while for them to be adopted. Take the move to DDR2 as an example. Its been over a year since the release of DDR2 motherboards and CPU's but still there is quite a few new systems that come with the standard memory in them.
Crucial has earned a reputation as one of the top memory companies in the world, simply because they have solid products and good prices. However they have not always kept up with the enthusiast communities desire for always faster products. They have started to do this with their Ballistix line of memory which has tighter timings and faster clock speeds.
Previously I have only used DDR memory in my computers, as I haven't needed DDR2, even though I'm running a LGA775 processor. However I finally got my hands on some DDR2 memory, so lets see how it does.
