Crucial Ballistix Tracer Red 800 MHz 4 GB Kit

Introduction

Crucial Technology was launched in 1996 in reponse to a growing demand for high-quality memory upgrades among end users by Micron Technology, Inc. Since that launch, Crucial has done nothing but exceed the expectations of those end users with their wide range of memory products and to this day remains the only consumer memory upgrade supplier that's part of a major DRAM manufacturer, selling high-quality memory that has been qualified and approved by all major original equipment manufacturers. Needless to say, Crucial has made a name for itself in the enthusiast market with the high-performance line of Ballistix and Ballistix Tracer memory.

Today we will be taking a look at Crucial's latest High Performance DDR2 kit, the Ballistix Tracer 4GB kit (2GBx2) Red Edition, for which I would like to thank Crucial for sending us.
