If you have a top of the line PC nothing can put the cherry on top like some good sticks of RAM. Even though it is not thought of as the biggest price point in any build you definitely do not want to sell yourself short in the RAM department. Corsair has been on top of its game lately by making some of the highest quality of RAM on the market for your special rig.

Right out of the gate you can probably assume that this is not something you want to put in Suzy’s computer at the office. This is formally built for the best of the best rigs and should be treated as the such. With a hefty proce tag of over $500 you get what you pay for out of each stick of RAM. This is proven by the specs

Check them listed out here below:

Generation: 4th 
Speed: 3333 Mhz (PC4 26600)
Memory Size: 32 GB (4 x 8)
Cas Latency: 16
Channel Support: Quad
Voltage: 1.35V
Access Time: 4.8 NS 
ECC: Non-ECC

Oh and not to mention…. It comes with its own RGB fan mount to keep your RAM looking stylish and fast

My word and specs not enough?

This Ripjaws X Series 2 X 4GB Model is an excellent addition to your business computer. This ram is made by G.SKILL which is a very well known company for their memory they produce. It is fast for the fairly low price. No I would not recommend putting this into a gaming PC of yours however it works great for an everyday PC.

Here are the specs for the memory in which we are reviewing:

• Capacity of this motherboard is 8GB (2 x 4GB). The memory sticks are 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM. The memory is DDR3 2133 megahertz (PC3 17000). CAS Latency is low at 9. The following is the timing as well, 9-11-10-28 It requires 1.65 volts of power to run smoothly. The memory is non-ECC as well as non-parity. The memory is dual channel maximum. The memory is always very appealing to the eye with its blue color. It only comes with the stylish heat spreader to upgrade the performance.

• One of the most impressive things for this memory is how fast it is for the price. The access time for this memory is 4.2914 nanoseconds. That is a very fast access time for the memory only costing $77.99. Another bonus for this memory is that it has a heat spreader which helps keep the memory cool which will help the memory preform at its highest capability.

• The memory works very well for your everyday business PC. It is DDR3 so make sure that it is suitable for your motherboard. One suitable motherboard for this memory is this ECS AMD Motherboard Supported A55F2P-M2(V1.0). I recommend this memory and worked very well for me.

<![CDATA[Kingston Technology It is the largest independent producer of DRAM memory modules, currently owning 64% of the third-party worldwide DRAM module market share. (Wikipedia)
I was looking for the FASTEST* RAM I could find for the MSI B350 PC MATE. I had done some extensive research on good, reliable, and fast RAM. Through this research I came acrossed the HyperX Fury RAM by Kingston Technoloy

Some specifications of this RAM is:

• Amount of RAM: 8GB (2×4)
• Speed in MHz: 2400
• Generation: DDR4
• Parity/ECC: No
• CAS Lantency: 15
• Access Time: 6.25ns

After using the RAM for an extensive amount of time, I am able to say that I am impressed. For the low price of $101.99, I can say  that this RAM is at the higher end of the spectrum when it come to looking for high end RAM for a lower price. With the high speeds that it can handle, and the low price, I can safely give Kingston’s DDR4 HyperX Fury RAM a 8.5/10.

This is a review of GeIL EVO POTENZA memory that is compatible with any motherboard that takes DDR4 2400 memory.  This model is designed for desktop memory. This memory can be used for a faster gamer PC without overclocking the motherboard. This model is up to date, and the memory can be used for business purposes. While you could use this for lower end use like for home use, it is not the purpose that it is being reviewed for.
The GeIL EVO POTENZA RAM (random access memory) is manufactured by GeIL. GeIL stands for Golden Emperor International Ltd. GeIL is a manufacturer of computer hardware components and one of their focuses is on the development of RAM (random access memory). They are headquartered in Taipei, Taiwan. Jeff Hsieh founded the company in 1993. Since being founded they have focused on memory design and their memory technology. (GeIL Wikipedia)

Specifications:

• 2×4 Gb
• Bandwidth: PC4 19200
• Parity vs Non-Parity: Non-Parity
• ECC vs non-ECC: Non-ECC
• Channels (single, dual, tri or quad): Dual
• CAS Latency: 16
• Type: 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM
• Access Time: 6.67 ns
• Voltage: 1.2V
• Speed: 2400 MHz
• Lifetime Warranty

With these specifications, it worked really good and really fast for my ASRock H270 Pro4 business motherboard. When I found these specifications fit my motherboard I double checked them, so I could use this as fast memory on my business motherboard without overclocking it. It was also only $89.99 on newegg.

<![CDATA[Kingston Technology is the world’s largest independent manufacturer of memory products (Kingston Technology).  Kingston manufactures flash memory products and other computer-related memory products. In 2015, Kingston generated revenues of over $7.0 billion USD (Kingston Technology).

I was looking for a Kingston memory module to fit into my MSI Z370 SLI PLUS gaming motherboard. I went to the Kingston Technology website and their website recommend several of the ValueRAM options in 16GB and 8GB memory stick. I chose the 8GB KVR26N19S8/8 as a consideration for my memory.
I then did research on the KVR26N19S8/8 to figure out if it would be worth spending my money on. A read a rating from Overclock, initially being interested in it’s cost efficiency but it’s ability to overclock for it’s rated clock speed. I ending up purchasing the KVR26N19S8/8 for it’s cost efficiency and it’s basic gaming capabilities.

Specifications of a KVR26N19S8/8 Memory Stick:

• Amount of RAM: 1 x 8GB
• Generation of RAM: DDR4
• Access Time: 7.1267 nanoseconds
• Bandwidth: 21,328 MB/S
• Non-Parity
• ECC/EDO/FPM: No
• Channels: not specified
• CAS Latency: 19
• Warrantee: lifetime warranty

Overall I wasn’t impressed with this cost efficient memory module. The KVR26N19S8/8 has a high CAS Latency that I do not recommend for gaming purposes. If you spent more money, you could buy Kingston’s HyperX Predator series.  Kingston’s Predator series is much more impressive with a higher ability to overclock and a more efficient gaming memory module.

<![CDATA[Corsair has more than 20 years of PC performance and innovation. Corsair provides many different computer hardware options. Things like gaming keyboards, mice, headsets, mouse mats, and memory. That is what this review is about.
The Corsair Vengeance LPX is some great memory for a computer. Corsair produces great sticks of RAM for a very decent price. Actually, that is the one thing bad about Corsair memory. They have some high prices for their sticks RAM. Even though they have some high prices, it is worth it for how good their memory is.
This memory that I have is the Corsair Vengeance LXP 32GB. This type of memory from Corsair is is two sticks of RAM. Each stick is 16GB which makes a total of 32GB. More specifications are bellow.
Specifications:

• 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM
• Speed:
  • DDR4 2400
  • 32 GB (2 x 16GB)
• CAS Latency:
  • 14
• Bandwidth:
  • 19200
• ECC vs non-ECC:
  • Non-ECC
• Access Time:
  • 2.4 Ns

After going through these specifications on this memory, I highly recomend getting some sort of Corsair memory if you plan on building Y=your own PC. If you are not willing to spend a whole lot of money on your memory, then the Corsair memory is not for you.

<![CDATA[Patriot Memory designs, manufactures and markets high performance memory modules, flash memory, mobile accessories and gaming equipment. The headquarters for the company is located in Fremont, California. Patriot Memory takes pride in memory. The process begins with using high-quality components and ends with rigorous functional testing to ensure each module is reliable and compatible (Wikipedia).
I am going to be reviewing the Patriot Viper Elite 4Gb memory stick. I used this memory on my home motherboard which was the ASUS Prime B2-50 Plus Motherboard.
I think that the memory was overall a good fit for the motherboard. The Viper Elite series provides the best performance and stability for the most demanding computer environments. The colors of the heat sinks can be red, blue, or grey. Patriot’s Viper Elite series is offered in dual channel kits and quad channel kits, at speeds from 2400MHz up to 3200MHz (Patriot Memory).
 
Specifications:

• • CAS Latency: 16
  • Type: 288-pin DDR4 SDRAM
  • Access Time: 6.6 Nano Seconds
  • Channels: Dual Channel
  • Bandwidth: 19,200
  • Parity v. non-parity: Non- Parity
  • Non Ecc v. ECC: Non ECC
  • Warranty- lifetime

   
  Overall, I think that the Patriot Viper Elite 4Gb memory stick was a great fit for my motherboard. Not only does the memory have a lot of great features, but it only cost $52.99 which makes it a very affordable option (Newegg). I would recommend the Patriot Viper Elite 4Gb memory stick to anyone who was looking for a cheap option for a home motherboard.
