Crucial, Micron’s global consumer brand of computer memory and
storage, today announced its limited edition Crucial Ballistix MAX
5100 gaming DRAM. Expanding on the award-winning legacy of the
Crucial Ballistix product portfolio, this latest offering provides
consumers with an optimal gaming memory option, boasting the
highest speeds available to date for purchase.
Crucial Ballistix is the only brand of gaming DRAM
that incorporates custom tuning at the die level, resulting in
world record-setting performance. In fact, these same gaming DRAM
modules were recently used by a competitive overclocker to
hit a blistering 6,666MT/s, the fastest ever for
DDR4 modules. The record-breaking frequency and valid CPU-Z
screenshot are posted on HWBOT. Like Micron’s leading products and
solutions for enterprise and personal computing, Crucial gaming
memory is purpose-built, making it the only gaming memory that’s
vertically integrated — designed, engineered and manufactured from
start to finish in-house. This unique approach is unmatched by
competitors, allowing the new 5100MT/s modules to deliver blazing
fast speeds to hardcore gamers and maximized results to
overclocking enthusiasts.
“We were the first to launch DDR4, the first to put
LEDs on gaming DRAM, and now our latest Crucial Ballistix memory is
giving gamers a sharper edge by enabling higher frame rates and
better system performance,” said Teresa Kelley, vice president and
general manager of Micron’s Consumer Products Group. “This latest
memory speed is another testament to the team’s focus and delivery
of world-class, innovative high-performance gaming products.”
A limited number of Crucial Ballistix MAX 5100
modules will be produced at launch and available in 16GB kits for
purchase at crucial.com or through select global channel partners.
Crucial gaming memory sets the standard for extreme performance by
delivering reliability, faster speeds and lower latencies when it
matters most. These select Crucial Ballistix MAX 5100 modules are
designed for extreme overclocking and engineered for compatibility
only with the very latest AMD and Intel platforms. Gamers and other
customers looking to extract the best performance from their PCs
can upgrade with other Crucial products like the Crucial P5 NVMe
SSD and the Crucial X8 Portable SSD to supercharge their computers.
All Crucial Ballistix memory is backed by a limited lifetime
warranty.2 For more information about Crucial DRAM and SSD gaming
