Geil: memory for overclockers
Geil, a young Taiwanese company is distinctly positioning itself as a manufacturer of non-standard memory for overclockers. "Standard" - is not their slogan, they are freely and bravely experimenting with timings, select best chip batches, invent their own cooling methods, intricate wirings using the six-layer design and are doing their best to be ahead of the whole planet... "Always Ahead!" is what written on their foreheads and all their produce.
Let me remind you that to date the most established standard is the DDR400 (PC3200), with similar memory type is also offered in the Geil assortment, but why should such petty stuff be brought to the CeBit? Geil brought only DDR433/PC3500 and DDR466/PC3700.
As the company representatives explained, the overclockers' memory is produced in two series - Platinum and Golden Dragon. The difference is in the presence of cooling attachments for the Platinum series and their lack in the Golden Dragon series, with the latter selling in exclusively golden make and in velvet packaging :-)
