What just happened?<\/strong> Crucial Ballistix memory has been a name familiar among PC enthusiasts for many years, which makes it all the sadder to learn that Micron has just announced its Ballistix, Ballistix Max, and Ballistix Max RGB brands are being discontinued. <\/p>\n

Micron never revealed why it was killing off the Crucial Ballistix name. The company said in a press release that it “will intensify its focus on the development of Micron’s DDR5 client and server product roadmap, along with the expansion of the Crucial memory and storage product portfolio.”<\/p>\n

The news does explain why we haven\u2019t seen any Ballistix DDR5 memory. Crucial does offer standard DDR5-4800, as opposed to any high-end Ballistix options with all the associated bells and whistles, such as heat spreaders.<\/p>\n

“Crucial JEDEC standard DDR5 memory provides mainstream gamers with DDR5-enabled computers with better high-speed performance, data transfers and bandwidth than previously available with Crucial Ballistix memory,” said Teresa Kelley, Vice President and General Manager, Micron Commercial Products Group<\/p>\n
