Mushkin Enhanced 996826 Expert Reviews 4/2011 - Mushkin’s Blackline 996826 4GB DDR3 kit looks as if it's come straight from an arms manufacturer’s research lab. Heavy black metal heat spreaders cover the sides and extend into angular crenelations that rise 10mm above the top of each stick. ...

Kingston KHX13000D3LLK2/2G 2GB Memory Kit TrustedReviews 4/2008 - Since the release of the the faster DDR3 and new new chipsets from both Intel and Nvidia, front side bus speeds between 1,600MHz and 2,000MHz are now possible. Can a Kingston KHX13000D3LLK2/2G 2GB Memory Kit help you reach these levels of satisfaction or will it only get you half the way there?

GeIL Evo One 4GB PC2-6400 Memory Kit TrustedReviews 2/2008 - I've heard the GeIL name every so often over the years but this is the first time I've had my hands on some of its memory. Mind you I suffered some confusion when I got a call from VIP Computers, the UK importers of GeIL, as I had always assumed that GeIL was pronounced ‘guile' but no, it is ‘Geel' the phonetic brother of ‘wheel'. For what it's worth GeIL stands for Golden Emperor International Ltd. The two modules of Evo One memory look rather funky thanks to the GeIL MTCD (Maximised Thermal Conduction & Dissipation) cooling system. The casing of the heatsink is made from two pieces of matt black aluminium that join at the top. It is attached to the memory chips with thermal glue and the outer surfaces of the heatsink are ridged to increase surface area.

AMD Memory Entertainment Edition 8GB TechRadar UK 2/2012 - Are AMD too late to join the RAM party when other revellers such as OCZ have already left?

Corsair CML4GX3M2A1600C9 Expert Reviews 2/2012 - The Corsair CML4GX3M2A1600C9 kit contains two 2GB DIMMS and is one of the cheapest budget sets that's currently available. What is the performance like?

DDR2 Memory Round-Up TrustedReviews 5/2006 - Like so many successful technologies, DDR memory seems to have been with us forever. At least, that’s how it seems from within the industry. On the high street though, things move a little slower. Remarkably it was only six short months ago that a well know PC super store referred to DDR as an “emerging technology”, as I found out when I got chatting to one of its service counter guys about which brands it stocked. And in its chain of stores it probably still was. Review details: Nine DDR2 memory modules were reviewed and rated based on performance, durability and overclocking capacity. Scores ranged from 4 out of 10 all the way up to 10 out of 10 points.

Corsair CML8GX3M2A1600C9W Expert Reviews 2/2012 - Corsair's CML8GX3M2A1600C9W might cause a bit of a surprise, as this 8GB kit doesn't cost much more than a 4GB kit.

Corsair CMZ8GX3M2A1866C9R Expert Reviews 3/2012 - Generally RAM has a subtle appearance, but this is not the case with the CMZ8GX3M2A1866C9R which is from Corsair's Vengence range, and uses bright red toothy heatspreaders. Not only is it designed to keep the RAM cool, but to also have a striking appearance if you have a windowed case.

Kingston KHX1600C9D3X2K2/4GX Expert Reviews 4/2011 - This 4GB kit of 1,600MHz DDR3 RAM from Kingston's HyperX Genesis range looks like it should cost more, with a snazzy chrome-on-brushed-steel-effect heat spreader that would satisfy the most style-conscious of case modders. The spreader is standard height, too, which makes it easy to fit into place next to even oversized CPU coolers.

Most home computers today have at least 1GB of DDR2 RAM, which is usually enough for most applications, but for video editing or cutting-edge gaming more memory is recommended. Its successor is the faster-clocked DDR3 RAM. DDR-RAM and SD-RAM are very seldom used.
