Buffalo FireStix: Red Hot Name for a New High-End Memory

Buffalo is relatively new to the enthusiast market, though the company itself has been around for a while. Can their new memory hang with the rest? Find out in Anandtech’s review of them.

“While Buffalo FireStix do not break any new ground in our DDR memory tests, FireStix were competitive in every way with the best DDR500 memory that we have tested. The performance was very comparable to other high-speed enthusiast memory based on Hynix B memory chips. That is, the FireStix performed at aggressive 2.5-3-4 timings at DDR500 as well as decent 2-3-3 timings when running at DDR400.”
