14 DAY TRIAL // In the computer industry, when one line of products is successful, everybody wants a part of it. Such is the case with Taiwan-based company Walton Chaintech; they have announced the release of their APOGEE GT DDR2-1066 memory modules.
These modules are considered to be "the best choice for high-end platforms based on the Intel Core 2 Duo/Extreme/Quad series or AMD Athlon 64 series processors"; oh, really, it's strange that every company says that their products are the best, and I'm not the one to argue about Chaintech's offer, it's just that they all say the same line. These guys on the other hand had a little spirit in saying exactly the types of processors that are the most valued on the desktop market, as being the models their memories are recommended for.
All commercials have a purpose, to sell you something, whatever it is, a product, a service, now or maybe, through repeated influence, in the near future. It's just the way things go, and the best thing to do is just to stop looking at commercials, change the channel as soon as they come on. But somebody had a different idea on this, and the company with the thought was Philips, they wanted to promote a feature that would not allow a user to change the station when commercials came on. Good thinking on their part, I'll give them that.
And such is the case with memory modules, everybody promotes high-end memory modules for high-end gamers and high-end systems. What happened to the regular user, who doesn't need all that processing power for browsing the Internet, listening to music, watching movies and occasionally for a chat over on an Internet messenger. Does anybody promote regular RAM modules, which work just fine in normal processing conditions? No, it's got to be Super Extra Killa' Monster RAM modules, with liquid nitrogen cooling, (I think that's the last thing they've got left on memory cooling that they haven't tried yet) that runs faster than some peoples processors, and cost as much as a down payment for a car. Well, anyway, for high-end systems, now you have yet another set of memory modules to add to your list.
