OCZ Technology Launches the PC2-8000 Titanium Alpha VX2 Series

Sunnyvale, CA—June 27, 2006—OCZ Technology Group, a worldwide leader in innovative, ultra-high performance and high reliability memory, today announced the PC2-8000 Titanium Alpha VX2 Edition, a special extremist series of modules specifically geared towards the high-end overclocking community. Carrying on the OCZ Voltage eXtreme (VX) legacy, the PC2-8000 Ti Alpha is the first high-voltage DDR2 product that offers enthusiasts the performance edge they crave. With the arrival of AM2 CPU technology and the impending release of Intel Conroe, the high-speed Ti Alpha VX2 is an unparalleled memory solution for the latest DDR2 platforms.

As a member of the Voltage eXtreme family, the PC2-8000 Ti Alpha VX2 is designed to operate at a high voltage in order to increase the speed while maintaining stability that is usually unobtainable when conventional modules are pushed to run at a higher voltage. At DDR2-1000, the Ti Alpha VX2 supports ultra-low timings of 4-4-4 at 2.3 volts without any adverse affects to stability whatsoever. The result is unrivaled DDR2 performance.

“VX2 shows OCZ’s continuing devotion to the hardcore overclocking enthusiast. With VX (Voltage eXtreme) for DDR1, OCZ brought you ultra tight latency at high memory overclocks with a warranty that covered the use of increased voltages; this is now carried over to OCZ’s DDR2 line,” commented Tony Leach, Product Specialist, OCZ Technology. “VX2 is the perfect match for the next generation AMD AM2 and Intel Conroe processors, which gain substantial levels of performance when matched with high frequency low latency DDR2 modules under overclocked conditions.”

The PC2-8000 VX2 is the second member of the OCZ Titanium Alpha series—a new line of memory that carries the industry’s highest performing DDR2 solutions. All Titanium Alpha modules feature exclusive, multicolored XTC (Xtreme Thermal Convection) heatspreaders implementing an innovative Titanium deposition coating process that is resistant to scratches. Each Titanium Alpha module has its own unique color scheme and displays interchanging shades depending on the lighting and angle of the heatspreader.

The PC2-8000 Titanium Alpha VX2 will be available in 1024MB Modules and 2GB (2x1024MB) dual channel kits. Furthermore, each OCZ PC2-8000 VX2 module is 100% hand-tested for quality assurance and compatibility and is backed by an industry leading OCZ Lifetime Warranty and technical support for unparalleled peace of mind.
