The HyperX team introduced to the Belgian press last week their new lineup. Biggest novelty was the side step from the traditional Kingston HyperX branding. HyperX is a standalone brand from now and is mainly focusing on gamers and affiliated markets. Edward, the EMEA business manager was present, together with most of the Kingston UK team and the Dutch Lewis PR crew. The event location was at 2BY2, one of Belgians greatest hardware distributors.

Before we get into getting the kit up and running we've got to quickly some of the more major details of our testbed. On the motherboard side of things we're using the brand new GIGABYTE Z77X-UD5H. As for the CPUs, we've got both the Intel Core i5 3570k and higher end Core i7 3770k Ivy Bridge based parts. We've got our fingers crossed we've got everything we need to hit that 2666MHz DDR memory clock.
Unfortunately off the bat we didn't. We found that our i7 3770k was capping out around the 2600MHz DDR mark, a little shy of the default 2666MHz DDR. Fortunately being based out of Taiwan and creating a vast network of people we managed to hunt down a Ivy Bridge 3770k from someone and sliding it into our testbed we had that running 2666MHz DDR straight away.

Every time I think of Kingmax my mind instantly goes back to the days of wishing so much that I could buy PC-150 TinyBGA modules from them, but only being able to afford PC-133 Apacer modules. There was a time when Kingmax was the memory to own; when we moved to DDR2, though, they did get left a bit in the dust to new performance company Corsair with its XMS lines of overclocked memory.

Today we're looking at another kit of memory from Kingmax; not quite as hardcore as the Hercules 2200MHz DDR kit we looked at the other week, but since we haven't looked at anything from Kingmax in a long time it'll be interesting to see how their Tri-Channel memory stacks up.

Amateur and professional photographers are alike in wanting to catch the “perfect shot”. Sometimes when dealing with fast moving action you need a camera and memory card fast enough to freeze the moment. Newer DSLR cameras are fast but can be bottlenecked by the speed of their memory cards. To help deal with this memory card issue Kingston one of the premier names in memory and storage have released their next generation SDXC memory card – the Kingston SDXC 64 GB.

Although during this year’s CES many manufacturers presented impressive and innovative products there's no doubt that the most impressive storage product unveiled was the DataTraveler HyperX Predator 512GB USB 3.0 flash drive by Kingston. Now this was not only because Kingston managed to squeeze 512GB in a flash drive (was bound to happen sooner or later since 256GB units have been around for some time) but mainly due to the fact that the Predator is pretty much the first USB flash drive of its kind since it's basically an SSD in flash drive format. And like if 512GB were not enough Kingston announced that they will release a 1TB version in the following months. After all of the above no one can really wonder as to why we just had to check the latest DataTraveler HyperX Predator 512GB USB 3.0 flash drive out right?

A while back Kingston introduced their brand new Hyper X gaming RAMs to the world, baptized the Predator series. The most obvious visual change is the redesign of the heatspreader. The Predator heatspreader is a bit lower and more refined then the aging blue Hyper X heatspreader. Biggest internal change however is the support for higher speeds and tighter timings out of the box. Kingston had to react to the competitors products. The insane memory speeds that Intel's latest 3rd generation Ivy Bridge support, were way higher then what Kingston had on offer. Today we look at the Hyper X Predator 2400MHz C11 8GB Dual Channel kit, optimized for the Z77 platform.

Who can't remember the Kingston and their HyperX memory back in the good old BH5 days. Much have changed since then, but the HyperX brand is still burning hot. In this review we look at a Kingston Hyper-X 2400MHz 4x 4GB Memory Kit in a special 10th Anniversary edition.

In unserem letzten Speichertest, welchen wir vor rund 3 Monaten veröffentlicht haben, stellten wir Speicher von A-Data, Crucial, GeIL und Mushkin vor. Ein prominenter Name fehlte damals im Test: Kingston. Neben dem Anspruch regelmäßig aktuelle Speicherkits auf Ihre Alltagstauglichkeit und OC-Fähigkeiten hin zu testen, wollen wir vor allem eine breite Palette an Herstellern abdecken. Heute schließen wir diese Lücke und haben gleich zwei Speicherkits von Kingston getestet, welche beide mit einer Kapazität von 6 Gibibyte und einem Referenztakt von 1.600 MHz daherkommen. Ob es noch mehr Gemeinsamkeiten gibt und wie sich die Kits im Vergleich zu den vorherigen getesteten Riegeln schlagen, erfahrt ihr auf den folgenden Seiten.
