Chinese company Transcend, which has made a name for itself with its flash-based products, is presenting the first RAM-modules of its aXeRam series.

Aimed at the large and growing overclocker and PC-tuning community, the company promises that its overclocking kit offers superior stability and performance. The set consists of a matched pair of 1 Gigabyte DDR2-800 sticks of RAM. In a very unusual step, Transcend gives this product a 30-year warranty – even when it is overclocked! The modules are passively cooled using an aluminum heatsink, beneath which 16 Samsung chips reside on a six-layer PCB.

The manufacturer gives the latency as being CL-4-4-4-12, expecting this to result in a 10% performance increase over modules with a CL5 latency. Despite their higher performance, the modules are meant to run within normal parameters at a voltage of 1.8V. Transcend claims that raising the voltage to ensure stable performance will not be necessary.

Transcend’s 2 Gigabyte DDR2-800+ aXeRam overclocking kit should be available in online shops around the middle of September at a price of under £70/€100. Another version with 1066 MHz is planned for the beginning of October, although no information on pricing is available yet for these modules.
