The fact that you should use your RAM at least in dual-channel if possible has fortunately become widely accepted in the industry today. However, unlike channels, ranks are still talked about very rarely, if at all. Many publications, some of them very well known, prefer instead to talk about “sticks” or modules affecting performance [...]
The Trident Z RGB and Neo series from G.SKILL have been around almost as long as DDR4. However, for the new Ryzen 5000 CPUs, G.SKILL has refreshed their SKUs and added new XMP variants specifically optimized for Ryzen. Today we’re looking at the top of the line model of the new variants, a 2x 16GB kit in dual-rank configuration, with Samsung [...]
The reason behind and restrictions Cyberpunk 2077 sets new standards for graphics and therefore hardware. But not only the graphics card and CPU, but also the RAM can play an important role for the FPS, as we recently found out when testing the Patriot Viper Steel RGB for the first time with Cyberpunk as benchmark. In today’s review [...]
Patriot’s Viper Steel series has been around for a while and is probably known by most as a DDR4 secret tip for its good price/performance ratio without unnecessary bells and whistles. But now the RGB illumination of the universe is unstoppable and so the Viper Steel RGB series is launched today. At launch, there are models with clock speeds [...]
A good 5 years ago, the fourth revision of the Double Data Rate memory has become the standard for the broad mass of PCs, and with first information about the market introduction of DDR5 next year, the DDR4 standard will probably soon reach the end of its life cycle again. The production techniques and products of the DDR4 manufacturers are [...]
Micron's latest earnings report also includes information that the company will soon begin production of High Bandwidth Memory (HBM2). Although it seems a little late for this, Micron's presence in the storage market is likely to leave a positive impression on the end customer. Micron announces that it is working with Samsung and SK Hynix [...]
The T-Force Xtreme series had been announced for some time, but now, in January 2020, the fastest modules will finally be available on the market. I was able to get one of the packs with the T-Force DDR4 4000 Xtreem ARGB and of course also test the memory bulb extensively. These kits made of 8GB modules come with three different speed gradations [...]
The largest possible CPU on the smallest possible motherboard, best still remove all the heat sinks of the voltage regulators and that's the basis for the next YouTube orgy. Of course, I couldn't completely escape my curiosity about the possible limits, but in the end one should also be aware of his responsibility as a medium and not panic the [...]
When testing the new AMD Ryzen 3000 CPUs, we found a significant difference in write rates between the R9 3900X and the R7 3700X in the aidA64 storage benchmarks. After initial astonishment and theoretical assumptions, AMD has now confirmed that it is indeed a conscious choice of architecture.
Corsair upgrades its Dominator series with the Dominator Platinum RGB DDR4 3600 (and other clock rates) technically and visually again, so that a test seemed quite convenient to me to question it. What all this then brings in practice must be proven by the test scenario, which is deliberately designed in a practical way, because all synthetic [...]
Our French colleague Yannick Guerrini contributed a large part of the content in today's test and, as we are all on the same wavelength and also want to expand our strategic partnership in Europe, there will certainly be many more articles in the future. developed in close cooperation. I would like to put this ahead of the test, because we [...]
What is white, fast and in its class still (with) the cheapest offer? With the KFA2 Hall Of Fame Extreme DDR4-4000, you can not only visually finely upgrade your system, but also accelerate it. What this in the Praxi... Memory Tests Intel The nice thing, of course, is that we can fully extend the clock rates of the memory kit. The question [...]
