When building a system the component choices can often be a limiting factor, both in price and performance. Luckily memory manufactures have gotten better about creating specialized memory kits specific for your particular system. In this review we ...

The ram cooler with a 3 pin Molex please !
Looking at the above bold claim. It perfectly wraps it up here : Low Voltage ( 1.5Vdimm vs 1.65 ), Ultimate bandwith and performance. And this all at an affordable price. Okay cashing 105 euros out for just a 4GB kit might sound silly as a 4GB ...
We've seen enough memory modules to know that performance differences are minor when running rated speeds, and to a modest degree, tighter timings. Greater differences typically haven't been seen until we pushed them on the bench with some heavy overcl...

32GB of system memory is a lot of memory for any system today. However, the advent of Intel's Sandy Bridge Extreme processors and X79 chipset brought along with it quad channel memory support and the ability to run or use up to 64GB of memory on a des...

Abstract: It's been a while since we've written a RAM review, but we've had a couple of kits sitting around needing some love. We actually tested the G.Skill kit we're looking at a few weeks ago, but a couple of high profile motherboards and a steady stream of vide...
P67 memory has come in so thick and fast that it's not even funny, and over the coming weeks you'll see a heap of memory reviews from us covering all the major brands. Already we've looked at a couple of kits from Corsair. Today, though, it's time t...

Recent increases in the price of system memory has brought it back into sharper focus. We'd recommend users install at least 8GB, preferably 16GB, for smooth performance when multitasking. Results in this review show there isn't a whole heap of perfo...
Abstract: Taiwanese memory manufacturer G.Skill is once again under the review spotlight. The firm contacted us after reading our article on the surprising gains in performance provided by faster RAM when run on an AMD Trinity-based desktop APU platform. Unlike a f...
