Crucial Technology Europe today announced the immediate availability of its leading-edge Crucial(R) Ballistix(TM) high-performance memory modules, including 1GHz PC2-8000 (DDR2-1000), the fastest Ballistix module to date. In addition, Crucial is releasing PC2-6400 (DDR2-800) and PC2-5300 (DDR2-667) low-latency memory, designed specifically for computer gamers and power users seeking maximum system performance and stability at a competitive price-point. The new DDR2 PC2-6400 and PC2-5300 modules are optimised to provide leading-edge performance in motherboards based on both the Intel(R) 925XE and 955X Express chipsets.

Crucial's Ballistix high-performance DDR2 line now includes the following modules in both 512 megabyte (MB) and 1 gigabyte (GB) densities:
