DDR 2 is a little old now but for this price I'd buy. And the blue lights are PREEEEETY.

Me too. Must have stopped stocking it and wanted to get that last bit of inventory out.

consider yourself saved from the headache of RMAing it in 8 months, and then again in 8 months after that... Only real plus is for the price you can get it for after rebate most of the time you can buy a backup set, lol.

I'm done with ballistix. they've gone down the drain. :[

so ballistix is crap now...it's offical for everyone it seems huh?

Squeaky wheel gets the grease, so you don't hear as much out of happy customers, but there sure are a lot of unhappy customers squeaking about it. I will give it one thing, for the price and performance it offers, even having to RMA it a lot isnt that bad if you can afford backups as I said. I haven't seen much ram that offers the kind of price/performance ratio Ballistix does. If it didn't carry a lifetime warranty no one would buy it though.

I bought a 2x1GB set of DDR2-800 Ballistix ($50) about 1-1/4 yrs ago, and then another set ($20) about a year ago. They are both running in my rig now w/o issue (*knock on wood). Not everyone has issues w/ them, and the fact that they were so highly recommended for so long means that a lot of people had them...especially on this forum.

I Still have my ballsitix tracers 1066 running strong. they have been oc to 1200. and they run 90% of there time 1066. I'm happy with them.

Sorry i feel the need to defend the ballistics. Like another poster you always hear about the bad but never the good
