HyperX -- Kingston's gaming brand -- is most well known for high quality RAM. With that said, it has expanded over the years to include gaming peripherals, such as mice, keyboards, headsets, and more. Still, despite a more diverse product offering, memory remains the crown jewel of its business.

To highlight just how important RAM is to HyperX, today, the company makes a shocking announcement. You see, the company has achieved an impressive milestone -- more than 60 million memory modules shipped since 2002!

As someone that tinkers with PC building, I can attest to the excellence of HyperX RAM -- it is fast and reliable. There's a reason the brand is still standing 16 years after launching. I look forward to the company achieving future memory shipment milestones -- 100 million, 150 million, etc.
