From our front-page news:
It's incredible to believe that less than one year ago, a performance DDR2 2GB memory kit would run you at least $300. Back then, it would have been difficult to fathom that eight months in the future, a 4GB performance kit could be had for half that. Today, there is little excuse for not picking up a 4GB kit if you are looking to build a new machine - as long as a 64-Bit OS in the plan, of course.
OCZ has just launched a new Platinum PC2-8000 kit, making them one of the few companies to do so (G. Skill also offers one, while GeIL offers a PC2-8500). Although overclocks will always vary, these modules have been able to go up to DDR2-1100 in OCZ's lab, varying primarily on the motherboard chosen (ASUS P5K Deluxe performed the best).
I would have killed for a kit like this last year... and now they are so common-place! You can pick up this particular kit when it hits retail shortly, for ~$159.99USD.
