Fatest Faster & More Memory, Please!

Do you think you have enough memory installed? Are you sure your video card has enough memory? Well, most of us, at least those that upgraded recently, would answer "yes", but hardware producers want to prove us wrong once again. How?

Well, that should be pretty obvious - by adding more and more memory to the video cards, but that's not all. While DDR2 memory is currently the best choice for most users, more and more producers start to manufacture such modules, so it's only a matter of time until DDR2 remains behind...

Today, I have two memory-related news for you. One of them is related to DDR3, and the other, as you probably got it already, about the memory installed on video cards...

First, it seems everyone is going big. For example, Jetway announced a GeForce 9600 GT card with no less than 2GB of GDDR3 memory, which should go right into production once of these days, so if you really want to "play it big", you'll probably be able to have such a thing in your computer before the end of the month. Wow!

At last, we have Mushkin Inc., a company that just arrived in the DDR3 camp, by announcing their XP3 series of DDR3 memory, "Designed for trailblazing enthusiasts seeking ultimate performance, the XP3 modules offer the reliability and speed needed for maximum frames per second in games and chart-topping benchmark scores."

These XP3 memories will be available as single 1GB and 2GB modules, as well as in 2X1GB and 2X2GB kits, all being hand-tested and featuring the FrostByte heatspreader. Anyway, don't hurry to get them, because they won't be available until April!
