VulkanBros · Feb 26, 2013, 08:59 AM

Yo - nice - but I think i´ll stick to my Corsair Platinum´s

Joe Public · Feb 26, 2013, 11:49 AM

I think they look kinda gaudy. But since I don't use cases with side windows, it wouldn't really matter.

Great review Dave! I like how you went more in depth compared to other reviews of memory. Keep up the great work and keep going with these awesome RAM reviews.

It more than looks it...it IS a solid kit. Of course, the heavy heatspreaders do add to that.

dave u make love those rams, it will be my next step thanks a lot

dumo · Mar 1, 2013, 05:25 AM

Awesome review and good ram

I did test 2X4GB and so far it can do 3000 air.

Not all 2666 or even 2800 kits can scale up this high and completed 32m run.

I need your IMC!
