So does all this high performance come at a price? It depends on how you see it actually. The choice is between high performance and low performance. You could spend a little extra and opt for these High Performance modules knowing they'll take you a long way to the future, or you could go for some cheaper generic modules and be prepared to decide what you're going to do with them in a few months time. (Unless of course you're not looking for performance)

Mushkin's 128MB Rev 3 PC 133 High Performance modules are built off the best RAM there is, so if you're looking for high performance at a decent price they sure are one of the best option. In fact until now this is the only memory we have ever encountered to perform so well. Even at high FSB's the memory settings can be run at 2:2:2. Unfortunately at the time of posting this review we couldn't check to see how far these modules could go. Since they showed no signs of stress even at 143MHz, I'm sure the 150 + mark is not too far off.

The priced of $89 could be easily justified considering the ultimate performance you get. A word of advice; for those not looking for high performance keep your choices limited to something cheaper. Believe me it's going to be a real waste spending $89 and not reaping the full benefits of it.
