Mushkin 2GB XP2-5300 Extreme Performance DDR2 Dual Pack review

The Mushkin 2GB XP2-5300 Extreme Performance DDR2 Dual Pack is the latest DDR2 memory kit from Mushkin. As such, it comes with tons of improvements over their older models. It not only comes with a new heatspreader design, it also features better thermal tape. Both of these new features are designed to improve the thermal dissipation of these modules.This is important as these modules are meant to run at higher than normal voltages, and will therefore run much hotter than normal.

While it is also available as a 1GB memory kit, you should really go for the 2GB kit. With games like F.E.A.R. requiring loads of memory, 2GB is really the way to go these days. Even Photoshop users will appreciate the advantage of having two gigabytes of memory.
