Kingston HyperX Memory Review
The Pros
The first ever “Sandy Bridge” ready, ModuleFaster frequencies RAM available today with CompetitionPlug and play simplicity is the Kingston HyperX Memory.
A couple of weeks ago, Kingston announced the release of their new RAM - the HyperX, which allows Plug and play high performance memory for notebooks, the first to include “Sandy Bridge” available frequencies” for Intel's newest processors. This plug and play Ram uses JEDEC compliant of 1600MHz and 1866MHz memory values, truly a revamp for any notebook it's attached to. Now that sounds promising, let's take a closer look on this high speed memory and find out how it can help typical laptop users if it is as simple as “plug.”
Specifications
8 GB 1600MHz non-ECC SODIMM @ 1 0,5V (Kit 2) CL9-9-94 GB 1600MHz non-ECC SODIMM @ 1 0,5V (Kit 2) CL9-9-98 GB 1866MHz non-ECC SODIMM @ 1 0,5V (Kit 2) CL11-11-114 GB 1866MHz non-ECC SODIMM @ 1 0,5V (Kit 2) CL11-11-11
Avid PC gamers are already familiar with this new RAM from Kingston, and this high performance memory has already been widely used for desktop gamers. But this particular model is the first in high frequencies compatible for the latest 2nd generation Intel Core i5 and i7 processors.
For laptop users, there's no need for BIOS setting, as it most laptops automatically detects fast memory speed. Kingston even added the boost of performance laptop gets with this memory, as it delivers an automatic 'overclocking' notice with its HyperX modules. Also, these modules are backward compatible, and can be used to notebooks and Netbooks with older DDR3 base.
Test procedures
Here comes the fun part. Countless benchmark tests have been done with this memory, switching things to the maximum frequency and CAS latency of RAM with exhaustive analysis. And users can enjoy the benefits of this RAM faster to more capacity.
On its overclocking tests, 2 8GB kit HyperX 1866MHz memory (KHX1866CC11S3P1K2/8 G) was equipped to a chipset of Intel Sandy Bridge; one Toshiba Satellite A665 S5176 and the Lenovo ThinkPad W520, two very decent laptops. On Lenovo's ThinkPad, they use the latest and most powerful Intel Core i7-2920XM quad core CPU, which in theory should put the Kingston's latest RAM to its limits, but it runs smoothly and shows no problem with compatibility.
The Toshiba Satellite A665 S5176 on the other hand, used the more modest Intel Core i3 2310M processor. Again, the HyperX provide excellent performance. This particular test should be the basis for the usual type of RAM most laptop owners' use.
