Quote:Before releasing the X-Connect power supply and becoming a household name
virtually over night, Ultra Products was slowly releasing more and more
products and hitting the retail shelves at CompUSA and Fry's. Before the big
Samsung TCCD IC boom, Ultra had already released some memory modules and had
proven that the company can provide a decent stick of RAM. Now, Ultra is the
latest company to jump on the Samsung TCCD memory chip bandwagon, which is
actually a good thing to be on.
The Samsung TCCD ICs have really leveled the playing field like never before it
seems. Now, any company that can get ahold of some of these chips and create
some memory modules is able to compete with the big boys, like Corsair,
Kingston and OCZ, because the Samsung TCCD chips are just that good. Of course,
the companies are still trying to distinguish themselves from each other by
adding blinking lights or using superior PCB for even better overclocking, but
who would have guessed a couple months ago that you could compare Ultra memory
to Corsair, and it actually be a fair fight? Ultra obviously has a long way to
go before it will be listed in the enthusiasts' top five, but its new PC3200 XL
modules are definitely a step in the right direction.
