OCZ Technology Enhances Certified Memory Portfolio and Unveils New AMD CrossFire(TM) Certified Modules With an Advanced Heat Pipe Cooling Solution

OCZ Technology Group, Inc. (LSE:OCZ), a worldwide leader in
innovative, ultra-high performance and high reliability memory, today
announced the OCZ PC2-8500 AMD CrossFire(TM) Reaper HPC Edition. As
some of the highest performing modules on the market, the PC2-8500
CrossFire features the exclusive OCZ CrossFire edition Reaper HPC
heatsink for advanced component cooling.

Tested and qualified under AMD's renowned certification program,
the PC2-8500 CrossFire series not only meets a high standard of
quality, but guarantees superior compatibly with CrossFire technology.
Combined with AMD's esteemed CrossFire technology, the OCZ PC2-8500
certified series unleashes the performance potential of the entire
platform.

"OCZ's Reaper series makes use of heat pipe technology to
efficiently cool high performance modules passively," said Jacky
Huang, VP of Product Management, OCZ Technology Group. "By working
closely with AMD we are pleased to introduce the latest addition to
our CrossFire memory lineup, a special CrossFire Certified Reaper
1066Mhz dual channel kit that is optimized to deliver exceptional
performance and stability when coupled with CrossFire platforms."

"AMD is committed to pushing the limits of what gaming systems can
do through technologies like CrossFire, and the new memory modules
from OCZ are a perfect addition to any high-performance CrossFire
system," said Godfrey Cheng, director, platform technologies, AMD
Graphics Product Group. "The new CrossFire-certified memory from OCZ
ensures that gamers get the highest quality memory, with superior
performance and superb compatibility for their CrossFire systems."

AMD enthusiasts and system builders will love the customized look
of the new Reaper kits; these modules are cooled with an exclusive AMD
special Reaper HPC (Heat Pipe Conduit) heatspreader displaying AMD's
"CrossFire Certified" emblem. These unique DDR2-1066 modules feature
the Reaper HPC (Heat Pipe Conduit) heatspreader which is engineered to
deliver superior silent heat dissipation over traditional
heatspreaders. The Reaper HPC is an innovative cooling solution
developed by OCZ to effectively minimize heat produced by high-speed
memory. As heat rises into the thermo-conductive copper heat pipe
conduit, it is dissipated through a compact aluminum fin array. By
strategically guiding performance-robbing heat away from key memory
components, the unique Reaper HPC design maximizes passive cooling to
improve longevity and stability of the modules.

The first certified Reaper HPC memory product available will be
2GB (2x1024MB) dual channel kits optimized for the latest CrossFire
platforms. Rated to run with 5-5-5 timings, these modules offer gamers
an additional performance edge over conventional DDR2-1066 memory. The
CrossFire Certified Reaper 2GB kit is the supreme solution for gamers
seeking the advantages of increased reliability and bandwidth
management from their memory. Each OCZ PC2-8500 CrossFire Reaper
module is backed by an industry leading OCZ Lifetime Warranty and
technical support for unparalleled peace of mind.
