Kingston Technology Unveils 2-GB ValueRAM SO-DIMMs
Memory Maker First with Full Production Launch of Larger Capacity Modules; New
Faster Speeds To Empower MiniPCs, Notebooks for Windows Vista, High-Performance Computing.
Kingston® Technology Company, Inc., the independent world leader in memory products, recently announced it is first to
offer a full production launch of 2-GB 533 MHz and 667 MHz ValueRAM® SO-DIMMs concurrent with the release of new 800 MHz ValueRAM SO-DIMMs.
The new larger capacity, high-performance memory modules are designed to meet the growing demands of notebook computers and miniPCs; the
faster speed SO-DIMMs are in preparation for the industry migration to the 800 MHz platform.
“With the advancements in mobile and small form factor PCs, the need for high density SO-DIMM memory is increasing,” said Mark Tekunoff,
senior technology manager, Kingston. “Combining Kingston’s 2-GB SO-DIMM memory with AOpen miniPCs or notebooks with partners like MSI creates
an ideal computing platform for customers demanding high performance,” added Tekunoff.
“The new Kingston ValueRAM 2-GB SO-DIMMs are designed to deliver the premium experience for laptop users. When the Microsoft® Windows® Vista
operating system launches, more users will choose to move to at least 2 GB of system memory to gain improved productivity, enhanced visual
quality and visual style. MSI and Kingston are working closely in product evaluation and testing and we are always on the forefront to deliver
products with the best quality, reliability and compatibility to the whitebook channels,” said Daniel Wang, vice president, Channel Business
Development Division, MSI.
“Kingston has developed an industry-leading quality process to ensure that Kingston memory delivers superior quality, performance, and
compatibility with computing systems,” said Chris Liu, Vice President of Product and Marketing, AOpen America, Inc. “Kingston’s new 2-GB SO-DIMM
is a great inclusion in its product family — particularly for AOpen’s miniPC and the Mini-ITX motherboard products.”
