Conclusion

Using geizhals as a price research tool, we see that prices for the 2x8 GB version of 2400C11 Beast currently start at 125 Euros exluding shipping across the EU. Although this makes Kingston’s offer second cheapest in the 16 GB DDR3-2400 category, there are quite a few competitor products boasting 10-12-12 timings as standard in less than 10 Euro proximity. Given that Kingston are no longer able to offer their trademark bulletproof compatibity and reliability, the things are not looking too good for the Beast.
All things considered, the 2400C11 version of the Beast did not manage to impress us in any way. Having dreary specs, messy appearance, lackluster OC potential, questionable pricing with compability issues sitting on top of things, Kingston are hardly setting an example for other makers to follow.

Award

Since there is also nothing really wrong with it, the 2x8 GB version of DDR3-2400 CL11 beast gets a mediocre rating of 3 stars out of 5.
