Mushkin (/ˈmʊʃkɪn/) is an American computer hardware company best known for producing computer memory modules (RAM). Its customers include gamers and industry professionals. Mushkin products include solid-state drives, computer power supply units (PSUs), and RAM modules for desktops, servers, and laptops. They also produce a line of USB flash drives.

History

Mushkin was founded in Denver, Colorado, in 1994.[1] Ramtron International acquired Mushkin in June 2000. Mushkin became a wholly owned subsidiary of Ramtron, who used it to distribute memory modules made by its subsidiary, Enhanced Memory Systems.[2] In 2003, George Stathakis, the general manager, purchased Mushkin from Ramtron and converted it into a worker-owned company.[3] In 2018 Mushkin was owned by Avant Technology.[4]
