Detailed information about it.

TEST BENCH:
Box:	Silverstone FT-02 Red Edition
Source feed:	Antec HCG620W
Base plate	Gigabyte Z68X-UD5-B3
Processor:	Intel i7 2600k @ 4.8ghz ~ 1.34-1.36v
Graphic card:	Gigabyte GTX 560 Ti SOC
RAM:	Kingston HyperX 1600 CL9
HDD:	Samsung HD103SJ 1TB

The programs that we will use to check the performance are:

• Super Pi Mod v1.5.Winrar 4.0.Aida 64.Wprime 2.05.

We have conducted a study with the G.Skill Ripjaws X (8GB CL9) and G.Skill Sniper CL9 modules. In this way we will see the performance between Kingston and G.Skill.

With the new Intel Sandy Bridge 1555 platform, the importance of the bus has decreased and Overclock is performed through the multiplier, so the MHZ of the memories is no longer as decisive as it could be in other sockets. Kingston has made excellent 8GB 1600mhz memories with 9-9-9-27 latency at 1.5v. Which are enough for 99% of gaming, office and home users.

As we have verified in our tests, the performance is very similar to other memories. Its heatsink does its job perfectly. With the advantage of installing any heatsink on the market Noctua NH-D14, Prolimatech Genesis, Venom Voodoo.

We leave you our usual table of advantages and disadvantages:
