Value for money and does okay in benching.
Pros: Price, performance, overclocking capability
Cons: Capacity, colour
been using these for the last few months and I'm actually quite happy with them. Under XMP (Stock) they work perfectly and don't have any issue's, for the price I got them, they're pretty decent.
When I started overclocking them, that's when all the fun began.
Stock - 1600mhz 7-8-7-27 1.5v
Overclocked 1866mhz 8-9-8 24 1.6v
Overclocked 2133mhz 9-10-9-27 1.65v
Max stable overclock was 2133mhz with 1.65v 9-10-9-27 1T. I managed to squeeze a little more out of them:
Not bad huh
I'm sure that you could increase the speed or even tighten the timings a little more if you exceed the 1.65v range, however that's not recommended for 24/7 usage but for benching you never know.
Overall these aren't so bad for overclocking, however, for extreme bencher's, in terms of overclocking, there are better out there. Those that aren't looking for 8GB and want to overclock RAM these are certainly quite good as you can see
8/10
