    To tell you the truth I think that the 10th are the same as the crucial ballistix PC2-8000. Now as far as your questions goes, the one good thing about the alphas is that they're made for high voltage with warranty for it.

    i'd disagree with that statement. While i've tested only 1 set of 10th aniv, i have tested 5+ sets of ballistix 8000.


    Ballistix 8000 seem to base out at 570 4-4-4-5 w/ tight subtimings on 2.45Vdimm. Better sets do 580+


    The 10th anivs seem to come just under that 570 mark.

    While both are GOOD, I would take the ballistix 8000 for 260.

    i'm guessing they are ballistix 8000's with different spd. i'm going to find out here as soon as nicepun sends me his 10th anniv.

    This is my presumption because they have the same black pcb and ram ICs, I know this because I've owned the Ballistix PC2-8000 as well.
