  • The Kingston modules showed comparable performance to modules that are rated similarly when run at the rated timings and speeds without overclocking the CPU to gain an advantage. Really that is the expectation here. What was not expected was that the ...

  • The Kingston HyperX Black 8GB 1600MHz (KHX16C9B1BK2/8X) modules came well protected in the standard memory wallet type packaging, which is pretty much par for the course for this entry level memory. The modules themselves are a good size, not being too t...
