Introduction

When looking for some special edition memory, the first name that comes to my mind is definitely OCZ Technology. OCZ Technology is a familiar name to many computer enthusiasts. They have been manufacturing high quality memory for quite some time, and each time they have consistently developed innovative features, which have allowed OCZ to fine tune their memory for specific needs. They continue to develop the best memory around and their customer service is second to none. OCZ have come from the grass-roots to bring you to new heights, and their range of products speaks for themselves. Responding to the unique demands of gamers and enthusiasts, OCZ brings to market a number of exclusive, limited edition OCZ memory modules.

Tailored to some select applications that include case modding, gaming, and overclocking, these distinctive modules are the perfect selection for consumers looking for something special for their next system build or upgrade. Serious gamers put heavy bandwidth requirements on their memory, and put a premium on both superior performance and dependability. Featuring ultra-low 4-4-3-15 timings, the new OCZ Special Ops Edition (SOE) Urban Elite is ultimate balance of speed, reliability, and high capacity, making them an ideal solution for gamers. This new line of limited edition OCZ Technology memory features a distinctive urban camouflage motif heat spreader and a price tag that has an edge over competitors.

OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400 Spec Ops Edition Urban Elite Kit

Special Ops Edition, Urban Elite 2GB (2x 1024MB) dual channel kits are the ultimate memory upgrade for the latest graphics intensive PC games, such as Battlefield 2, Half-Life 2, Doom 3, and Quake 4, which deliver the best end-user experience with 2GB+ of memory. All Special Ops Edition modules are 100% hand-tested for quality assurance and compatibility and feature high quality XTC, which means Xtreme Thermal Convection, heat spreaders for the most effective heat dissipation. Furthermore, each OCZ Special Ops Edition module is backed by the industry leading OCZ Technology Lifetime Warranty and technical support for unparalleled peace of mind.

The OCZ Technology Package

The OCZ PC2-6400 Special Ops Edition memory came in the somewhat standard plastic package which contains OCZ's latest offering in high-performance, but limited edition memory. The packaging is somehow what other manufactures are using as well, a thin plastic package equipped with the individual memory sticks and specifications. In that way OCZ doesn't stands out in the crowd by using a different way on getting their memory products to the market. On top of that the package can be reused, as it is held together with two buttons up top which are easy to open and secure again.

The robust army camouflage heat spreaders help the modules stand out, and sell themselves and OCZ knows this. So they opted for a simple plastic blister package with the modules clearly visible for all eyes to see and drool over. The big OCZ label stretched across the top of the cardboard insert is also a big selling point. With that OCZ name comes quality and high performance that is well known amongst all enthusiasts and overclockers alike. At the side you will find the dual channel indication exclaiming that this pair of modules has been hand tested to run as a matched pair.

The cardboard insert is a generic one used on a number of Special Ops modules and OCZ is able to do this because they label each and every module with a sticker seen above. This sticker provides the speed, size, part number, series and timings of each module. You will also notice on the lower right hand corner where OCZ's warranty is outlined. You will not see the word limited anywhere. Instead OCZ clearly states that their memory is backed by a lifetime warranty. This lifetime warranty has become a trademark of OCZ Technology and each of their competitors is kindly inclined to follow. Quite a nice trend and we hope that OCZ will set some more...

The back side is where OCZ takes a little time to toot their own horn and rightfully so, they earned the right to. They outline the features of their memory covering the performance, quality, and technical support aspects, as well as discussing the lifetime warranty. The lifetime warranty is actually offered on all modules they are selling. Furthermore the back side lists the awards and statements which OCZ has earned with their recent high performance memory modules. All well considered their package certainly has the looks and will attract potential buyers quite easily.
