OCZ Technology, a world leading provider of high-performance Flash-based memory products, has recently announced the expansion of its AMD-supporting memory lineup, with the introduction of new DDR3 kits, designed specifically for AMD's latest AM3 platform. According to the memory maker, the new DDR3 kits are meant to be used in AM3-enabled computer systems, providing them with a low-voltage memory product ready to deliver a high level of performance.

“AMD’s new AM3 architecture is designed specifically for the gaming community, with emphasis on high data transfer rates between the system memory and the graphics subsystem,” commented Dr. Michael Schuette, VP of Technology Development at OCZ. “The key improvement over the AM2 platform is the embracing of DDR3 technology where OCZ has a track record of being a market leader. These new AMD kits further establish our leading role in this category and show our commitment to both industry partners and the gaming community by complementing AMD’s gaming platform with future-oriented, low voltage memory technology.”
