Introduction

Well I've finally moved over to a platform that supports DDR2 memory, so that means I get to do DDR2 reviews as well! So for my first review the guys over at Super Talent have sent me their brand new 1 Gig kit of DDR2-1066, technically this is PC8528 Ram, and from my tests this stuff over clocks very well, and has some great performance.

A Closer Look

The Super Talent comes in a nice easy open plastic clamshell, there's not much info on the package which leads me to believe this is a standard packaging for all types of DDR2 ram. Flipping over the pack we find nothing but a nice shot of the back of the ram, notice that there are only heat spreaders on the front side of the sticks.

Getting them out of the pack, we find a sleek looking couple sticks of ram with the Super Talent logo and slogan. Off to the left side we find a small sticker that is the model number of the ram and it also tells of the speed and capacity.

I mentioned before about the fact that there are no heat spreaders on the back, well there are no ram chips on the back so I guess there isn't much of a need for them.
