Introduction:

 First a little about the company, Corsair Memory, Inc. This next blurb is from their website:

“The Performance Memory Leader Since 1994: Corsair has been a leader in the design and manufacture of high-speed modules since 1994. Our focus has always been on supporting the special demands of mission-critical servers and high-end workstations, as well as the performance demands of extreme gamers. Memory That Meets The Toughest Demands: As a pioneer in high-speed module design, Corsair is a trusted supplier to many computer manufacturers. In high-density memory solutions, Corsair has always been one of the first suppliers to achieve advanced qualifications on Intel, Tyan and SuperMicro server platforms. We also work closely with other major server platform manufacturers to release product that is 100% compatible with their latest server products. Memory & Products For Enthusiasts, Servers & Average Users: Our flagship memory products are part of the XMS (Xtreme Memory Speed) family which is designed for the unique demands of the serious enthusiast community. The XMS memory line has become the world's most awarded memory, garnering more awards and Number One rankings from review sites and users' polls than any other performance memory. The XMS family includes XMS2, high performance DDR2 modules that have broken world speed records; XMS Xpert, the first modules with real-time display of parametric data; Pro Series, gaming memory with real-time activity LEDs; and XMS Classic with black or platinum heat spreaders. Our ValueSelect line of desktop memory brings our quality and compatibility standards to cost-effective products for today's most popular desktops and laptops. Value Select is available in DDR1 and DDR2. We also offer a large range of ultra-reliable server memory and memory for laptops and OEM desktop systems. Corsair has expanded beyond memory modules to offer performance water cooling units under our Corsair COOL brand. In addition, we offer a line of Flash memory. Our world's first water-resistant, shock-proof Flash Voyager USB is winning kudos for its sleek and functional rubber housing. Our range of SD and CF cards offer a lifetime of reliable performance for popular photo and MP3s devices, cell phones and PDAs.” ~ more info

I've reviewed many memory products from Corsair over the years. One important thing to note is the overall unmatched quality, system compatibility, and stability of their memory. Corsair, in many respects, are leaders in the memory industry.

Do you think you have enough memory for today's computing needs? Go ahead and admit it, you probably don't. Fact is, the demands that are put on current memory are great. With video/photo editing packages and games requiring more and more memory, 1GB of memory is hardly enough anymore. Games like F.E.A.R. and Battlefield 2 require a minimum of 2GBs to play at high resolution. Upcoming games being released in 2006/2007 will further benefit from having 2GB of memory installed. Let's not forget Windows Vista Operating System (OS) which will be released in 2007. This OS will push many of today's systems to the limit. Enough already, let's get on with the review.
