OCZ Technology Introduces P45 Special 8GB & 16GB Kits for high performance PCs
Addressing the never ending need for greater amounts of system memory, OCZ Technology Group, Inc., a worldwide leader in innovative ultra-high performance and high reliability memory, today announced all new "P45 Special" 4GB modules, a module density optimized specifically for Intel 's latest chipset. Available in 8GB dual channel kits and a special 16GB "quad kit," this new line of modules support the latest memory-hungry applications and games, offering superior performance gains. As an industry first, OCZ brings memory densities to the desktop segment that were reserved previously for high-end server configurations, offering a unique range of high-density kits to suit the varying requirements and budgets of everyday consumers.
"64-bit operating systems are becoming more mainstream and finally enable user memory to shed the 2GB limitation of 32-bit OS," commented Dr. Michael Schuette, VP of Technology Development at OCZ Technology. "Moreover, the latest multi-core systems are capable of simultaneous execution of highly complex workloads, each commanding its own virtual memory space. In that scenario, the only way of avoiding data collision without writing back to the hard disk is the migration towards super-high memory densities."
Ideal for workstations with 64-bit operating systems, the OCZ 8GB/16GB solutions allow users to take advantage of high density memory configurations when working with memory intensive design and multimedia applications. Graphic designers, CAD engineers, and music and video editing professionals will benefit from increased memory resources. OCZ's ultra high density solutions enable Vista users to maximize the performance, while providing large amounts of memory to facilitate smooth game play for the latest DirectX-10 games.
The P45 Special modules are available in a range of OCZ's high-performance memory series to meet the needs of enthusiasts, professionals, gamers, and system integrators with various budgets:

Just to add this from top link.
* Currently only the P43 and P45 chipsets support 4GB module densities in configurations of 8GB to 16GB.
But I do think the ammount of RAM is abit excessive; bar a select market of people.
would price be that bigger difference if it was 1066?
never had any ocz ram before though.
anyone had any bad experience with ocz?

Apparently its SLI ready. I sometimes get pangs of guilt that the poor wee things are in a non-SLi system :laugh:
Btw-Nice Job Alexp! :toast:
I'm not sure if the fleet is too big or if I have too many planets, but it happens every time I play.
EDIT - you should be fine with your mob, from Gigabyte website it says it has 4 x 1.8V DDR2 DIMM sockets supporting up to 16 GB of system memory
and where the hell is the ddr3 versions?

Install it and set it up.
I finally upgraded my ram to 1Gb to play the game.(IGP's require a lot of ram.)
maybe visist the game official forums to see if any1 else has the same problem.
As for the new kits ,i think they r pretty decent for those who need more mem,altho i think the majority of ppl are perfectly happy using their current 2gb or 4gb kits they have now.
cant see myself needing 8 or 16gb anytime soon :)
