Rated 5 out of 5 by from They Look Great. Work Best I use it on my Computer. I am using a 5900X and it works just fine on my Dark Hero X570 Motherboard. I have tried using many different combinations only to open up the MOD Utility Software to find the XMP profile I needed to make the 4000MHz 2 x 8GB kit reach a whopping 4400Mhz at CL20. My Cinebench scores went up accordingly as well. They are really great for maxing out the frequency. They are very simplistic, low profile and it's a premium product. You can't really lower the timings but I did not notice any improvement when I overclocked my FCLK to a stable 2000mhz to a 1:1 ratio. It was not worth it to stay at 4000mhz so I changed the settings to 4400mhz. I've run Memtest and it runs great. CL20-22-22-22-44 timings help you reach 4400. If you use the CL18 timings you can overclock to 4200mhz without any issue.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best RAM, for its price First thing first. This is not a samsung B-die so do not expect mirackes BUT i managed to tweak its latencies to 16-19-15-15-39-59 at 4000Mhz (1.45V) with trfc at 568 and THAT SHOT THE PERFORMANCE OF MY 5600X to the MOON!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nothing to complain. Works well. Well actually there is one. My use is very basic. Other one of the memory sticks didn't actually fit my case, since the chassis on top of it is so enormous. The page says "High-quality aluminum heat spreaders provide max heat dissipation", so maybe that huge chassis has actually some use. In older days we had just plain memory sticks without any plastic casing on top. The memory stick itself would be soooo much slimmer than it is with that casing. For normal gamer case this shouldn't be issue. I just had one super rare case where I actually had very limited space for my other memory stick and it didn't fit in because of the huge casing.
