As an SLI-certified SDRAM product, PC2-8500 Platinum memory modules are built with an EPP (Enhanced Performance Profiles) programmed SPD to provide a true Plug and Play overclocking feature that eliminates the need for manual configuration and makes memory optimizations a household item for beginners and gamers.

"OCZ is dedicated to delivering the fastest solutions, and the new 1066MHz SLI-Ready memory modules are the latest addition to our EPP featured lineup," Dr. Michael Schuette, VP of Technology Development at OCZ Technology. "These new modules are cross certified by NVIDIA and feature a perfect combination of high speed and aggressive, tight timings for the ultimate stability and maximum overclockability."

All PC2-8500 Platinum SLI-Ready modules are 100% hand-tested for quality assurance and feature platinum-mirrored XTC (Xtreme Thermal Convection) heatspreaders for the most effective heat dissipation. Furthermore, each OCZ PC2-8500 module is backed by the industry leading OCZ Lifetime Warranty and technical support for unparalleled peace of mind.

I would buy the ATi ones, they look cool, and would look good with a ATi set up. These, well they kindda look the same as regular memory. I don't understand, why they are not green.

Still though, PC2-8500 isn't bad. So if the price was right, I would get these modules if I had a DDR2 System.
