Comparing triple channel kits with a quad channel kit was not really how i wanted to kick off RAM reviews based on the latest Intel X79 platform (LGA2011) since i don't quite consider it as fair but aside the fact that we got to compare the two latest cha...
Abstract: Ok. You, the readers, were right. We screwed up. I'll be the first to admit that when we picked the components for our current cooler testing machine a few years back, we blew it.It's not that the gear is bad, per se, it just isn't best-suited for testing...
The Kingston Technology 16GB 2133MHz Genesis memory is a perfect candidate for just about anyone who wants or needs an affordable, large capacity, high frequency memory for their computing needs. ...
Ok, so you can pretty much guess what we think of this memory at this point. If you can't, well we absolutely love it.First off, it's low profile memory, which is awesome because there's less of a chance of having large coolers bump into the heat spreader...
The Kingston HyperX Genesis kit has some odd discrepancies between the what the sticks are claimed to be rated for and what the XMP profiles set the RAM at when used. Even the SPD table and XMP profiles do not match. There is also an odd issue with LinX...
Lowprofile heat spreaders won't present cooler clearance problems, Two XMP profiles make setting the speed you want easy, Lifetime warranty, Comes in a useful memory storage bin,
Very expensive enthusiastlevel product, DDR32133MHz timings of 11121130 are looser than the competition, Performance not commensurate with cost in most applications
The whole point behind paying more for high-performance components, be they fast CPUs, killer graphics cards, SSDs, or performance memory, is to see this better performance in your system. While the Kingston HyperX DDR3-2133 memory showed its mettle i...
There is a lot that happened during the course of this review and we were really surprised to see such a mixed bag of results on a whole bunch of fronts. We were pretty satisfied with most of the overclocks that we got out of all the kits of RAM we had...
High Speed Memory Modules, Lightweight Heatspreader, Dual XMP Profiles, Sandy Bridge Specific Memory, Best Results at Rated Speeds
CAS 9 Timings, Not able to adjust timings at speed
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 any one particular system. In this review ...
The Kingston‘s HyperX® Genesis Special Edition Grey is an excellent choice for any new Intel 2nd Gen build, especially on the P67 chipset. These high-performance dual-channel memory kits are engineered to complement the new motherboards featuring th...
