The Random Access Memory (RAM) is an important part of computers, servers and other electronic devices. Generally it is much faster than the permanent storage memory of your device and all information stored in it will be lost when you switch off your device. Extra RAM is often an affordable and efficient way to upgrade your slightly outdated device, so you can use it another year.

First up is a 4GB kit from Kingston. Imaginatively titled the KHX1600C8D3K2/4GX, it's part of the company's HyperX performance range. As the name intimates, the kit consists of two 2,048MB modules (256M x 64-bit) that are rated to work at 1,600MHz wit...
Bottom line there's intrinsic merit in all three kits. Our recommendation would go to the sub-£100 Kingston DDR3-1,600MHz CL8 kit because its appeal is the broadest...

Bottom line Though mileage may vary, there are trends among manufacturers and specific products, and we've seen many Kingston memory modules run extremely fast and push some very high overclocks. We recently saw a set of Kingston T1 sticks hit the highest speeds...

Bottom line We really liked the performance of the Kingston HyperX 8GB kit. We especially liked the performance boost you get moving from a 4GB kit to a 8GB kit. We've known for a long time that the amount of ram you have is just as important if not more importan...

Bottom line The differences between a DDR3 1333 and 1600 MHz kit look small on paper. In real life performance and evaluation the 790i responded quicker and the entire system seemed a little snappier. The synthetic benchmarks show that you get improved bandwidth...

DDR3 is here to stay, but it doesn’t seem to be making much headway into the market really, it’s been around for a while but yet not as many people have adopted it as they did with DDR2 when it first came out. one of the reasons is that there really is...

Bottom line So it is worth it going from DDR2 to DDR3? Yes it is, and the Kingston HyperX performs admirably well.Of course we like to overclock our ram if possible but I couldn’t get much out of it, but as we know not all ram is the same, so other peoples&rsqu...

DDR3 is finally coming to a price where many mainstream system builders will be willing to pay. Manufacturers must provide mainstream DDR3 solutions to fill in the gap between the high end (and inexpensive) DDR2 and the very expensive, high speed DDR3...
Bottom line The KHX12800D3K2/2G kit retails for about $200 at the time of this review which is a fantastic price for modules that run at 1600MHz. The timings are a bit slow, but this is the king of pricing that allows many people to jump into DDR3 without too much...

Despite the Kingston HyperX 2GB DDR3-1600 dual channel memory kit having fairly loose timings (9-9-9-27), it manages to keep pace with other kits rated much more aggressively (7-7-7-18). The performance at 1600MHz and higher was just fine, the only iss...
