Looking to get every last bit of performance from your new Core i7 or Core i5 Sandy Bridge processor? Not sure how much impact memory speed has on performance? Take a look at our article today and you might be surprised at how much more performance a good 2133MHz memory kit will gain you as we take the latest Kingston HyperX Genesis kit and put it to the test!
The Kingston HyperX Genesis series memory kit is considered the middle of the road when it comes to the HyperX brand line. We take an 8GB DDR3 1600MHz memory kit and thought we'd see how this very common kit performs. This dual-channel HyperX Genesis memory kit is Intel XMP-Certified, comes with grey heat spreaders and runs at a low latency timing of 9-9-9-27 at 1.65V. Find out how it performs and overclocks in our review!
Kingston has always been the memory that comes to mind when I think of enthusiast memory. Their HyperX line of memory has been their top of the line enthusiast memory and some of the first ever enthusiast memory to be released. Today we are going to be checking out their HyperX Genesis DDR3-1600 8GB Dual Channel Memory kit (KHX1600C9D3X2K2/8GX). This kit features Kingston’s newer heatspreaders and runs at 1600MHz with timings of 9-9-9-27 at 1.65V. This kit is the perfect starting kit for someone who is looking into dual channel memory. Read on as we take a look…
Die HyperX-Genesis-Module aus dem Hause Kingston wurden erstmals Anfang des letzten Jahres für die Sandy-Bridge-Prozessoren der zweiten Generation vorgestellt. Mit der Ankündigung der Patsburg-Plattform von Intel und dem dazugehörigen Quad-Channel-Interface führte der Speicherspezialist die Baureihe fort und bietet damit als einer der wenigen Hersteller von Speicherriegeln eine performante Alternative mit niedrigem Heatspreader an. Für diesen Test liegt uns das 16 Gigabyte umfassende Quartett mit 2.133 Megahertz Takt und den Timings CL11-12-11-30 vor. Ob Kingston mit den DIMMs ein hervorragendes Produkt abliefert klären wir im Laufe des Artikels.
Today we're actually checking out another kit in the HyperX Genesis series which is the entry level HyperX series. The particular kit we're looking at is, like most other kits we've looked at lately, a Quad Channel kit designed for the new X79 platform that we've been looking at heavily.
To check the specifications on the kit, though, and find out exactly what we're dealing with, we headed over to the Kingston website and the 1600MHz DDR kit comes with a 9-9-9-27-1T setup. These are "ok" timings; they're not super tight, and considering the speed they're probably a little on the looser side of things. It's ultimately what the Genesis series is all about, though.
Today's review product comes from the high end of the performance spectrum and is a kit designed for Intels X79 platform, though it will also work on dual channel boards. With an advertised speed of 2400MHz we put the latest Kingston HyperX modules through a selection of real world and synthetic tests.
Kingston can sometimes be overlooked in enthusiast circles, which is a shame as they have some fantastic solutions on the market. They recently announced several new memory products and today we are looking at their high end HyperX H20 memory modules.
Sick looks and integrated water cooling top off this special H2O edition from Kingston with their HyperX 4GB 2133MHz kit. Legit Reviews pushes the Kingston HyperX H2O 2133Mhz memory kit in our Sandy Bridge test bench to see if there is any more juice that can be squeezed out of it and we will show you how this DDR3 memory kit stacks up to some run of the mill 1600MHz memory.
This particlar set of memory consists of 2×2gb memory modules operating at a speed of 1375MHz with timings of 9-9-9-24 at 1. 6v. It is made by one of the biggest companies in the market and comes with a lifetime warranty.
Do you still remember the days when Intel's Pentium 4 was duking it out with AMD's Athlon 64, almost every enthusiast owned an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro, having 1GB of RAM was the gold standard, and 160GB hard drives were considered high end? As vivid as it could be in my mind, I still recall configuring my dream computer at my favorite online retailer -- clicking and adding things to the shopping cart, changing and subtracting components repeatedly -- on items I could only, well, dream of owning at the time. Those were also the days when there were only two brands of RAM you should consider if you wanted the best of the best: Kingston HyperX, and Corsair XMS. It wasn't until after that manufacturers like OCZ, G.SKILL, and Patriot took the enthusiast market by storm, and suddenly performance memory became everyone's object of desire. Fast forward to 2011, after owning dozens of kits from pretty much every major manufacturer you could name, somehow by chance no Kingston RAM has ever made it into any of my computers. But regardless of which, the HyperX brand has always held a special place in my heart as a signature of elite performance and quality. Is the original pioneer (Or at least, one of the first) of high performance enthusiast RAM really still the brand to buy? We plugged a Kingston HyperX Grey Series KHX1600C9D3X2K2/8GX 2x4GB dual channel kit into our labs, gave it a close look, and ran it through our standard series of tests to compose our review today. Read on to find out what we have found!
