14 DAY TRIAL // It would seem that, in addition to new video cards that have yet to debut, PNY has also been working on a pair of high-capacity memory modules that have already been released in Europe.
PNY has been preparing to unleash a mainstream GeForce GTX 500 card, a GTX 560 Ti that is, but it still has to wait for the formal announcement from NVIDIA for that.
In the meantime, the company seems to be filling the void, so to speak, by doing something similar to Gigabyte and I-O Data, namely working on two markets at once.
Thus, while waiting for the right moment when its video controller will stir waves, it has launched two new memory modules.
To clarify, Gigabyte has been working the graphics card and power supply fronts simultaneously, by means of the AMD Radoen HD 6850 and 80Plus Silver PSUs.
Similarly, I-O Data created a 27-inch liquid crystal display and several new additions to one of its portable hard disk drive collections.
Now, PNY has reportedly unleashed a pair of DDR3 memory modules upon the not very unsuspecting European market.
One of them is a long DIMM intended for desktop PCs, while the other one is a laptop SO-DIMM with understandably lower specs.
For those that want numbers, the former has a clock speed of 1,333 MHz, works on a current of 1.5V and has CL9 latencies.
The latter settles for a frequency of 1,066 MHz and CL7 latencies, while the power required is the same 1.5V as that of its sibling.
With their capacities of 4 GB, they should be able to grab the attention of the consumer base, especially considering their prices of 54.90 Euro and 59.90 Euro (for the desktop and notebook modules, respectively).
According to the report, online stores should soon start listing this particular pair of newcomers, if they haven't already.
