G.Skill offers a full range of tri-channel memory kits at speeds of up to 2000 MHz. We are taking a look at their red kit rated at 1600 MHz and CL9. Even though this memory is on the lower end of the line-up, it manages to surprise with good overclockablity and the possibility of tighter timings.

I've actually experienced the CONS of this article with just about every memory stick rated beyond 1333. There's little to no overhead, and tight timings aren't really common either.
