High-Capacity Modules and Kits Available for Todays Memory-Hungry Games and Applications HyperX Module

Fountain Valley, CA (April 17, 2006) - Kingston Technology Company, Inc., the worldwide independent leader in memory products, announced today the expansion of their Ultra Low Latency DDR modules and introduction of Low Latency DDR2 memory modules. The Kingston HyperX 400 MHz (PC3200) CL2 DDR module specifications have been updated to support lower latency timings of 2-2-2-5-1 in 1-GB module and 2-GB kit memory configurations. HyperX 800-MHz (PC6400) CL4 DDR2 has been updated as well, to support 4-4-4-12 in 512-MB, 1-GB modules and 1-GB, 2-GB kit memory configurations.

Kingstons HyperX modules are designed for zealous gamers and the PC enthusiasts who want to maximize the performance of their system to allow for the optimization of memory parameters. Future and current DDR2-based platforms will witness increased operational headroom with low latency DDR2 modules from Kingston Technology.

The new DDR400 Ultra Low Latency HyperX with its 2-2-2 timings make it the ideal module for gamers wanting high density, low latency configurations in todays AMD based desktop systems, said Mark Tekunoff, senior technology business manager, Kingston.

With the newest games on the market and high-end technology PCs arriving soon, 2-GB of HyperX memory will become the next must-have configuration for mainstream power users, continued Tekunoff.

Kingston engineers designed and qualified HyperX modules by careful selection of memory components that were assembled and then thoroughly tested for ultimate performance. The modules were assembled with a heat spreader and tested at their highest-rated speeds. All of Kingstons memory modules are 100-percent tested and come with a lifetime warranty, demonstrating Kingston Technologys commitment to providing the latest in memory technology.
