When I decided to go with the AMD A10-7850K for my personal rig, I knew I need to pair it with a high-frequency RAM to get the most out of the processor and its iGPU. So I went ahead and bought an 8GB G.Skill Ripjaws X 2133Mhz RAM kit (F3-17000CL9D-8GBXM)...

G.Skill is no stranger to pushing the limits of what RAM is capable of. Recently we showed you a DDR3-2666 kit they displayed at CeBit . Today we look at some of the fastest 8 GB DIMMs on the market – a 32 GB kit (4 x 8 GB) rated at DDR3-2133 that even co...
In a word: Impressive. Not only did G.Skill send a 32 GB kit of RAM rated at blistering-for-the-density speeds, it even overclocked past what any normal person would need. SuperPi 32M stable at DDR3-2304 is stellar! Sure, you have to raise the voltage t...

I really enjoyed playing with the G.Skill F3-2133C9Q-32GXH kit. I was shocked at first to find the low required VCCIO, and then by the speed offered, seemingly coming from nowhere. Considering the fairly slow timings, I really did not expect this kit t...
