| | | | Product Guides | | | | | What is Ballistix memory?
The Ballistix line is specifically built for performance enthusiasts who want to push the performance envelope without worrying about data loss or corruption, mysterious intermittent errors and display problems, or worse — the dreaded BSOD! The Ballistix line of high-performance memory modules features advanced speed grades, low latencies, and integrated aluminum heat spreaders.
What is a Ballistix 240-pin DIMM?
A Ballistix dual inline memory module (DIMM) consists of a number of memory components that are attached to a black printed circuit board. The gold pins on the bottom of the DIMM provide a connection between the module and a socket on a larger printed circuit board. The pins on the front and back of a DIMM are not connected to each other.
Ballistix 240-pin DIMMs are used to provide DDR2 SDRAM memory for desktop computers. DDR2 is a leading-edge generation of memory with an improved architecture that allows it to transmit data very fast. Ballistix 240-pin DIMMs are available in DDR2 PC2-5300 SDRAM (DDR2 667), DDR2 PC2-6400 (DDR2 800), and DDR2 PC2-8500 (DDR2 1066).
To use DDR2 memory, your system motherboard must have 240-pin DIMM slots and a DDR2-enabled chipset. A DDR2 SDRAM DIMM will not fit into a standard SDRAM DIMM socket or a DDR DIMM socket. (Information about which memory technology your system uses is included in the Crucial Memory Advisor™ tool.)
The number of black components on a Ballistix 240-pin DIMM can vary, but it always has 120 pins on the front and 120 pins on the back, for a total of 240. Ballistix 240-pin DIMMs are approximately 5.25 inches long and 1.18 inches high, though the heights can vary. While 240-pin DDR2 DIMMs, 184-pin DDR DIMMs, and 168-pin DIMMs are approximately the same size, 240-pin DIMMs and 184-pin DIMMs have only one notch within the row of pins. The notch in a 240-pin DDR2 DIMM is closer toward the center of the module.

5 of 5 good buy for this pruduct if with rebate price Thursday, December 04, 2008 A Customer from Clovis, CA
Easy instalation, but how much does it boost my computer speed, I have no idea. I don't feel much improvement about the computer speed because I had 3Gb memory in the computer prior to this buy. Anyway I recommend to buy this with rebate price if rebate check will arrive in 6-8 wks. Was this review helpful?

This RAM is Awesome! I have not had a single problem with it, once installed my Vista machine was pumping some sweet visual action. I have been running my PC with this RAM for 3 months and everything is running smooth, quick and just like I expected. Was this review helpful?
