Hardware Canucks comparing two similarly priced memory kits from Crucial and Buffalo.
If there ever was a time to rush out and buy DDR2, it is now. Prices on many modules are less than half; and in some cases a third of what they were less than six months ago. In this review, I will be comparing the performance of a 2X1GB kit of Crucial Ballistix DDR2 1000 with EPP to a 2X1GB kit of Buffalo Firestix DDR2 800. Despite their different frequency ratings, these two kits both contain Micron D9GMH memory chips and should be expected to perform somewhat similarly.Buffalo Firestix PC2-6400 vs. Crucial Ballistix PC2-8000 Review
