Good performance
Heatspreaders look awesome and and do not extend over the modules that much
Decent overclock, Can run at lower latency, Small profile should fit with any CPU cooler
Faster doesn’t always mean better
This Kingston HyperX 1600Mhz DDR3 set is a decent set of ram especially if you’re looking to overlook your CPU. You should easily be able to get 300Mhz more out of this ram without changing the voltage or timings. The ability to run at the lower Cas...

Some people won;t like the loser 99927 timings
We generally like RAM kits with tight timings and good overclocking. At least until we started testing larger kits with looser timings. There is a slight speed trade off with 9-9-9-27 timings but in real life testing and performance we can't really se...
Overclocks well, Great performance, Runs at Cas8 1T with no adjustments, Inexpensive,
I couldn’t find any….
So the new blu HyperX is apparently some good stuff, it performs well, overclocks easily and can run at lower timings if you want it to. What more could you ask from a set of ram, other than low price, but the HyperX blu has that too coming in at the...
The Kingston HyperX proves once again it performs admirably well with the latest CPU's and overclocked. The HyperX can run at CAS8 and CAS9 with no problems at all. Seen in a CPU review at 8-9-9-27, T1 this memory overclocked well and performed with...
Abstract: How We Tested We tested the memory kits represented in this roundup on a system consisting of a P55 Express-based Asus P7P55D-E Premium motherboard, Intel Core i7-860 processor, and Nvidia GeForce GTX 280. We installed our OS of choice, Windows 7 Ultima...
Though mileage may vary, there are trends among manufacturers and specific products, and we've seen many Kingston memory modules run extremely fast and push some very high overclocks. We recently saw a set of Kingston T1 sticks hit the highest speeds...
Good Overclocker, Rock Solid Stable At Every Setting We Tried, Performance Scaled Well With Overclocking, Low Profile Kit, Easy To Overclock, Kingston Quality
More Expensive Than A 4GB Kit, Getting Spoiled By Kingston HyperX Ram
We really liked the performance of the Kingston HyperX 8GB kit. We especially liked the performance boost you get moving from a 4GB kit to a 8GB kit. We've known for a long time that the amount of ram you have is just as important if not more importan...
Effective heatspreader, Looks nice, Price/Performance Value, Not as expensive as a lot of enthusiast kits, Solid
Not entirely plug and play but still easy to install, LGA 775 doesnt do justice to DDR3
The differences between a DDR3 1333 and 1600 MHz kit look small on paper. In real life performance and evaluation the 790i responded quicker and the entire system seemed a little snappier. The synthetic benchmarks show that you get improved bandwidth ...
All-in-all, Kingston KHX1280D3/1G are fast and accessible DDR3 modules that can tip the scales to Core i7 side. If you decide to upgrade to Core i7 platform you only need to determine how much memory you need and you are sorted. Product HomePage Dis...
