Kingston HyperX DDR3-2133 4GB Memory Kit Review


Tue 2009-09-15 - Posted by Patrick "MACMAC" MacMillan
Legit Reviews have just tested Kingston's most high-end DDR3 modules to date, the HyperX DDR3-2133 4GB memory kit.

Here's what they had to say:

"If you are into overclocking, this memory has got you covered. We were able to reach 2200MHz by just upping the base clock of the system. Reaching 2300MHz was as easy as setting primary timings to 9-9-9. With very little tweaking and minor voltage adjustments, we hit 2400MHz! Getting big numbers from this memory was extremely easy. This is by far, the fastest memory I’ve had the pleasure of testing. Sure, you can get higher bandwidth numbers on a Triple Channel X58 system, but in terms of raw MHz I haven’t had anything else that can touch it! For those questioning the price of $379, those are the kind of things that you can expect as this is the Bugatti Veyron of memory kits."


This is an impressive memory kit, but it is absolutely not worth the price. Instead, buy G.Skill's $105 Trident DDR3-2000 4GB kit, and simply overclock it to DDR3-2133 8-9-8.
