Thirteen years ago I wrote my first articles on a Geocities hosted website called Anand's Hardware Tech Page. In celebration of our 13th year of operation a number of our gracious sponsors have provided us with hardware to give away to you. This site has and always will be yours, and as a way of showing our appreciation for for reading our content, helping us stay on track and helping spread the word when you like what you see we're going to do a giveaway every day for the next 28 days.
G.Skill was the first sponsor to send in product and they sent in a ton. G.Skill alone sent in a total of 58GB of memory for everything from desktops to notebooks and we're giving it all away over the next month (see above for a pic of what 58GB of memory looks like).
Today's prize is a 4GB (2 x 2GB) G.Skill Ripjaws kit (F3-10666CL8D-4GBRM). The memory is rated for DDR3-1333 with 8-8-8-24 timings at 1.5V. This should work in Intel LGA-1156 and AMD Socket-AM3 motherboards.

If you aren't in the market for new memory, today's prize may be a bit more tempting. Patriot sent over a box of goodies including this:
The Patriot Zephyr SSD is based on JMicron's JMF612 controller, the same controller used by Kingston in its V-series drives and by Western Digital in the SiliconEdge Blue. A solid performer, the Zephyr would be a great introduction to the SSD world for any user. We're giving away a 64GB drive.
