I am very happy with my purchase (well it being a bit overpriced compared to a couple of years ago), I noticed immediate improvements with my day to day tasks, and even managed to see some improvement in gaming (I run mostly AAA games maxed out, and aiming for constant framerate). The upgrade from 2133MHZ to 3000MHZ in my opinion is quite visible, as everything becomes slightly faster. Also the upgrade from 8GB to 16GB is again amazing (although depending on your day to day PC usage). I am a Software Developer, and quite frequently I have many programs running at the same time, so 16 GB was almost a necessity for me (having those IDEs getting up 3GB of RAM, and then Chrome/Firefox eating about the same amount,

I bought this 2x8GB DDR4-3333 kit for £89 to upgrade my gaming rig that runs an i5-6600K overclocked to 4.5GHz. Memory bandwidth is an important factor when gaming and has a large positive impact on minimum framerates in many games. Up to 30% gains are not unusual when compared to DDR4-2400.This kit matches my overclocked CPU's memory bandwidth requirements perfectly, ie, memory speed is no longer a bottleneck under any circumstances. Will this matter to an average PC user? Probably not in any meaningful way, but for anyone who wants to unleash the full performance of their CPU, sufficient memory bandwidth is a must.I'd been running a 2x4GB kit of HyperX Predator DDR4-3200 on the same system

I chose this memory for my girlfriend's gaming PC and I couldn't pick better.First, the design. Fully black won't appeal to many but creates a nice "stealth" look. The radiator is heavy and feels like quality steel instead of cheap, quasi-aluminium alloy. Its thickness is way more impressive than what we can see on Fury and Savage series by HyperX. That said, no worries about overheating, even under OC.Compatibility doesn't dissapoint either: the memory was instantly and correctly recognised on both Intel i5-6600K and AMD Ryzen 2600. From there on just a few clicks in BIOS/UEFI settings and we're good to go. Zero freezes, no BSOD, pure performance.Is that enough to pick this exact manufacturer & product?

It's RAM so not a huge amount to say. I installed it on my MSI X370 Gaming Pro motherboard, in place of the budget 8 gb 2133 mhz kit I'd been using for the past year or so (its not recommended to mix types, especially if you want full performance on fast RAM). It looks great with it's chunky aluminium heat spreaders. These are not low profile modules so bear that in mind if using a HSF that over-hangs the RAM slots. It booted up first time at the safe SPD speed of 2400 mhz @ 1.2v. I tested for a bit - all seemed fine. Then I went in to BIOS and selected the XMP 3333 mhz CAS 16 profile, and bumped up the RAM voltage to 1.35v. Rebooted and everything again went fine.

purchased this product as i only previously had 8gb at 2600mhz, and needed faster ram and more ram for more demanding games and also to help my cpu (ryzen), the heatsinks are not too tall was still able to fit my giant air cooler (be quiet dark rock pro 4) with no issue, both sticks worked fine straight away, after setting up the xmp file both sticks ran at 3200, but was able to set them to 3400, with all the same setting as the 3200 speed. i have tried overclocking them more a little, but cant get further, not fully tried yet though, but 3400 is plenty for now.overall great ram sticks, would highly recommend purchasing if you want some extra speed or more ram, without breaking the bank!

At first I was hesitant at buying this RAM, nothing wrong with it (I just felt it was time to run at a faster amount of RAM), The HyperX 3200Mhps RAM is phenomenal, it's from the maker KINGSTON and withstands the workstation pc's with ease, meaning it boots fast and is XMP 2.0 overclockable or manually.Games run smooth and 3d renders are twice as fast!This memory was given a 5 star allround rating for it's durability, I bought 48Gb of it and have bought another 16GB'salso it works wonders for/with X299 new hi-spec. Motherboards.No negatives to add apart from it doesn't light up like a Christmas tree (that version of this RAM can be bought separately).All in all a great addition to the KINGSTON RAM range,

Arrived quickly, Motherboard recognized the RAM automatically checked BIOS/UEFI but already XMP correct profile selected. I have You tube channel and having 32GB rather than 16GB is an investment. This RAM works well with the Ryzen processors and 32GB @ 3000Mhz is great for the price. Look me up on here for budget gaming PC builds and also on you tube for this. I uploaded a SSD, HDD & SSHD comparison video today if you are looking for PC parts this may help you decide on what parts to buy, build video's also - just search "Calm Cal pc" and look through the video's. If you are just surfing the net 8GB is enough if you are gaming 16GB is enough for now but for the price of this kit the purchase is worth it,

If you have b450 tomahawk max then this will work out of the box. Initial impressions were not so good as in maxxmem benchmark the performance was on par with my old ddr3 2400Mhz kit :( then I went to overclock and what a difference it was. It turned out that this kit will overclock all the way to 4400Mhz (your milage may vary) However the gains after3800 Mhz are not significant anymore. It lowered latency and increased throughput by a lot. I didn’t tighten the timings just yet so I would imagine with few more tweaks it will be a good buy

Not much to say, feels heavy which suggests well made and not put together with second rate materials (but what do I know?), plugs in just fine and was recognised immediately with no issue. I did have to mess around with BIOS to get it to register at full speed.Once in, I've not had any issues with it, everything on the PC works well, my old PC would occasionally hang, the new one runs as smooth as well churned butter, but then new builds tend to do that anyway.

package and ram was so heavy I thought they accidentally sent me two kits. heatsinks on it are huge. easy install but xmp speeds were formidable but not what I wanted, so I started overclocking. So far no errors in memtest on 3733 CL16. Latency down to 64 ns in benchmarking. I believe that is lower than what amd showed as latency. Ram is kingston hynix, and there is a prejudice against this with ryzen. Works on my machine though.

I always go for Kingston RAM with the lower heat spreaders for compatibility with large air coolers.This kit (purchased from Amazon) works well and is detected for XMP @ 4ghz. fully stable! This is on a X570 Gigaabyte Aorus Master.I will get some more when the price drops but 16gb is enough if not video editing/rendering.You do pay slightly more than the value kits but I have never had an issue with this brand.

A good value kit with subtle aesthetics, works fine on a b450 motherboard. It's nice to see a kit in this price range with two XMP profiles.Note that like most RAM kits you *have* to enable an XMP profile in the BIOS to run at 3333mhz or 2933mhz, otherwise it will default to the stock speed of 2400mhz. This is normal for most kits of DDR4, anything over 2133/2400/2666 is generally considered an 'overclock'.

Works perfectly with my AMD Ryzen 3600 and Asrock X470 Taichi setup. RAM was detected on first boot and is running perfectly at the advertised speed and timings. Very good RAM for the price and the usual high quality you'd expect from Kingston/HyperX.... Just make sure you have enough clearance around your CPU cooler as these modules are fairly tall.Overall very happy with no complaints.

These sticks are only CL16, but the overclock well, currently at 3600MHz with a very small voltage increase.I run mine at 16-19-19-36 for 24/7 stability, but you can probably tighten up the timings with more voltage, it's always a trade off.The black heat spreader is understated and thankfully lacks RGB. Gives a nice clean look.

Fitted in my rig with a Asus Prime X370 Pro motherboard and Ryzen 1800x CPU. Works perfect at 3000MHz. Had 3 separate sets of Corsair 3000MHz fitted, all failed one after the other with bad sectors, opted for this as was beginning to suspect Motherboard faulty, no problems now, obviously superior quality at cheaper price???
