PDP System Patriot XBL PC-3200 DC Kit

     Its amazing how the memory industry is ran. It seems like more and more companies are just doing the same thing. In a way it's good, and in other ways it's bad. The bad side is that you can still buy what seems like "good" memory and next thing you know its gone bad, and the company has gone out of business or they just don't care to acknowledge you as a customer. The good side is that the companies that treat you well, and know what performance memory is, quite often deliver that. One such company is PDP, and their new series of memory "Patriot Extreme". You may be wondering how good is this memory? Well with lack of better words, we'd like to say its the best we have ever tested on a socket 939 platform...
