This Ballistix release is the largest single module available at this speed. There are two versions, both identical in specification, only differentiated visually with this having the Gold coloured heatsinks and the Tracer being fitted with Black heatsinks and the addition of Activity Sensing LED's. This version is more commonly available than the Tracer versions although not as visually stunning. It has the same low latency memory timings that we have come to expect in Crucial's Ballistix memory and the performance far exceeds that of standard memory.

The scores should be treated as a guide only as performance can vary greatly dependant on other system components.
