I've often been told that adding to, or upgrading, my computer's RAM would be the most straightforward way to improve my machines performance.I look at my PC as a work essential, but I'm rarely tempted to open it up; never mind consider changing over any components.My desktop is an off the shelf HP, with the boxes ticked for a few upgrades from the factory. Nothing much has been touched since the day it was un-boxed.Having checked that my desktop would accept DDR3 memory, it really couldn't be simpler.I just powered down the machine, un-did the one screw on the side panel (most cases would appear easy to get into now, to make life easier for us), removed the side-panel and located the vacant slots on the mother-board.Now,

I purchased a pair of 8GB modules to go into a console replacement PC with a white and black theme. Initially going to be a Red and Black theme I initally brought the Kingston Savage sticks. However after changing to a white and black theme and the Savage sticks leaving a good impression I did not hesitate to pick up the Fury sticks.Much like the savage sticks while you won’t be holding them long, they have a lovely and serious heft to them. Solidly constructed and a nice texture which means they don't quite feel metallic as the savage sticks but nice none the less. Of course I am sure like many aesthetics play a role in picking these and to their credit Kingston have done a lovely job.

I use an Asus Sabertooth 990fx R2.0 motherboard and this RAM went into the slots incredibly easy - the low profile cooling encasement helps give a good finger / hand-hold of the RAM which then allows for a good solid placement and alignment into the RAM slots on the board - and the Sabertooth recognised the RAM in the BIOS first time on boot, though the clock speed was only at 1333mhz it was easy enough to clock the RAM Mhz up to the 1866mhz clock speed the RAM is listed as its working speed.After finding that Corsair RAM can have compatibility problems with being recognised by Asus Motherboards I sent the Corsair RAM I had originally purchased through Amazon's Refund program - which was a

I had on the motherboard, N68 C-S UCC, a hy-brid AM2/AM3 DDR2/3 I put together as it was a cheap mobo. and to play about unlocking cores on cpu's, however the psu was some what lacking and couldn't give enough power for the graphics card and several drives, the mobo supports both 4GB in DDR2 and DDR 3 however DDR2 4GB is very expensive and not forward compatible to my next system build, so got these as an interim, to replace the Geil DDR2 800MHz (silver)The R.A.M. itself well its darker in colour than appears on my screen (quite a nice blue, keeping this in mind for my new build) the mobo didn't bat an eye at the change, its given a significant boost to the ram speed,

I'll be comparing this to the Corsair Vengeance Pro (CMY8GX3M2A1600C9R) which I also own.So as you can see the sticks are red, almost perfectly matching the colour of my Gigabyte Z87X-UD4H's heatsinks. The RAM is also low profile which actually matters to me as they comfortably sit under the Noctua NH-U12P unlike the Corsair ones.So right now I am running both the Corsair and Kingston sets for a total of 16GB of RAM.Using the Auto settings both sets ran at 9-9-9-25 @ 665Mhz (which is 1,333 MHz since DDR).By twiddling with the RAM speed and timings I managed to get them running at the more impressive 9-9-9-24 @ 800 Mhz (1,600 MHz DDR). This has been fully tested using Memtest86+.So what does this mean?

I installed and had no boot problem. Gamed with it fine. Then on day two, tested it with Memtest, which it passed perfectly. All seems to be working. Kingston apparently have the lowest RMA for memory so I am happy. I bought it because Shadow of Mordor (SoM) was using all my previously installed 8GB of RAM. Now I have 16GB, and SoM uses about 10GB max.It's actually better looking than the picture shows. I would have liked to get the white modules because my other identical modules are white. However I noticed that the other colours were cheaper so I bought the cheapest, red. It looks fine installed alongside white. Plus I will always know which is which out of the old and new RAM.Technical Stuff:My board specs say this;* Due to Intel® chipset limitation,

Improving you RAM is usually the simplest and most effective hardware performance upgrade that you can make. Just slot them in, power up, and off you go.Because I was increasing the amount of RAM for my machine with this order I can't comment too much on the effect high performance of the RAM. The increase in capacity was more important to me.What I will say, is that if you are multitasking using Windows 7 or above with less than 8 Mb of RAM, then increasing you RAM will make a noticeable difference to you.On the face of it the colour is just a gimmick. Usually I would say that I am not a fan of gimmicks, but for some strange reason I quite like it on this occasion.

While brand and product line reputation isn't as much of a necessity when purchasing RAM, it either works or it doesn't, Kingston has an excellent level of brand loyalty among it's customers and with good reason. Their warranty quality (in the UK at least) is superb and if you have any issues with their products they'll almost always get it sorted.As for this stick I purchased a single 8GB white stick at £24.99, a great price for DDR3, you'd be hard pushed to find anything cheaper (new) anywhere else. The sheath over the chips is, as far as I can tell, metal, adding to the premium feel and adds little height to the profile of the ram so it shouldn't cause any issues with large CPU coolers.The

Bought these based on the reviews I've read and the size of the heat spreaders. Because of the oversized heatsink and fans required to keep the top chips running cool and for overclocking potential you can struggle to fit the high end ram with its large heatspreaders. These aren't much taller than the ram itself but seem a little wider. They fitted easily under the scythe mugen 4 I purchased to keep my i7 4770k cool. I bought the black version because the motherboard I have will eventually be replaced so I played it Safe (the white modules look stunning so I may get another set to sit between the black ones I have at a later date).

I'm not sure how to tell how good RAM is and given that the consensus seems to be 'if you're a normal user RAM is RAM' I figured to fall back on aesthetics.These look lovely though the side window.Got this in the sales and having installed it am very pleased with the result. I am a newish/intermediate pc builder and bought this as one of the last things to buy for a new system. The package is in a plastic box similar in a way to how other ram sticks are packaged but has only one package to fit both sticks. It is very sturdy plastic and has a reassuring protective feel about it. The red heatsinks are questionable as to how much they really help but it does look cool on my motherboard so I suppose

Very good RAM! Quite literally plug and play. Currently have it at 1600MHz, and it's running fine. When I upgrade my CPU I will be taking full advantage of the extra MHz! In terms of reliability it's not faltered, caught fire, blown up or got into a fight with anybody, so that's good!It is also a sexy stick of RAM , as far as RAM can be sexy. Which I guess isn't much really! Anyway, aesthetically it's nice, don't see white that often so it makes a nice change and goes well with the rest of my components... an unintentional but pleasing occurrence!Overall it's brilliant RAM! Recommended!UPDATEAfter 3 months it's still running perfectly, can't fault it! In fact I got another stick!

Bought these (pre-Brexit) for a shockingly cheap £24, to use as a downgrade for a 4790k HTPC conversion. Excellent RAM in every way. It was the best bang for the buck option I could find, and looks much nicer in my opinion than the equivalent Corsair LPX series (although not as nice as vengeance led's or dominators, but you get what you pay for). Certainly very pretty RAM for the money.At the end of the day it's RAM, the performance is the same as any other RAM at the same frequency and CL - it doesn't bsod and that's what matters! Perfect for using in an HTPC, or similar level browsing and media system and even a little photo editing and light gaming here and there. If you're main intention is gaming,

Okay, a quick note on this product...So far it's pretty good though it has only been 24 hours and haven't really started overclocking or playing about with it's speeds yet as I'm still running another 8GB but with slower speed (1333 MHz) so this runs at the same speed for the time being, I am going to be getting another 8GB of this shortly once funds allow. As to the product itself, easy to install but slightly higher than my older RAM so the old fan cooler will definitely be getting in the way (already have a new cooler, just need to fit it). Plus the colour fits in with my Sabertooth 990 mobo so not too much of an issue there.

Fitted straight in under my rather large heat sink, was recognised by the bios and speed adjusted.As for the quality, I replaced a set of HyperX that I had already as I needed the speed boost.Solid appearance with no tendency to bend, Heatsink covered to entire unit apart from the ends and the connectors. slightly bigger than the set I was replacing in height but only by a few millimeters.Look and feel really good quality.Came pact in a PET unit holding two memory modules and instruction also a hyperx sticker if you are one of those people who stick things on your case. The plastic was ridged enough to protect in transit and I have put the old modules in it for storage.

I already have 32gb of this in my second build and it is great performing and stunning looking ram sadly the same can't be said about the fury ssd which not only looks ugly and cheap but worse doesn't come in 480gb which I was planning to get to go with the 120gb I ordered ( my bad I should of checked up better) sadly this means that that the 120gb will be going in my second build to sell and will have to jump to the savage series instead for my main build and will no longer need the extra 16gb of fury ram I ordered, it's. A shame because the hyper fury ram is an amazing product and to see it's ssd line treated so poorly especially compared to the savage series is a complete joke shame on you
