Pros: Price Looks Performance Overclock RGB
Cons: Timings(not the fastest) Compatibility(new this when I bought it--see Overall Notes)
Overall Review: I think this ram looks great, guess it depends on the individual. I bought this ram because it was reasonably priced for a 16gb kit. I wasn't sure if it would even work on my son's rig. He's running a 2600X(AMD) in a MSI Krait X370 motherboard. For whatever reason I can't get anything to run over 2133mhz on the board any longer. I had some GSkill Flare X 3200CL14(Samsung B-die) that I ran at 3400CL14 with a 1600X without any issues. I also tried my other set of GSkill Trident Z 3466CL16(also Samsung B-die) and it wouldn't run over 2133 either. I don't blame any of the ram, including this set. It will only boot at the 2133mhz as well. I say I don't blame the ram for the issues because I threw this set of OLOy in my rig, 3700X on a X470 motherboard, and it booted into the AXMP profile on first boot. I was also able to get this set to run at 3600mhz on the same board. That was at stock voltage(1.38 in Windows, Auto in bios).The timings weren't too bad either(16-18-18-36 CR1). Adia showed a latency of 68.1ns, not the best, but much better than the 3000mhz(81.1ns). I knew going in that this set probably wouldn't work on the X370, but I took a chance anyway. That's on me, not OLOy. IIRC, the memory modules were Micron. Besides the compatibility issue I was surprised at being able to get this ram to 3600mhz. The only other thing I didn't care for is that there is not temp reporting for this kit. I'm a bit OCD and both of the GSkill showed temps, which if you are going to tighten timings, or OC...is a must have on Zen+/Zen2. Oh...the 3600mhz achieved was also with the Infinity Fabric at a 1:1 ratio(1800mhz). I've read where a lot of people say these have a Two Year Warranty...but according the website, they are a Limited Lifetime on them. If I were to recommend these I would say, make sure you are on at least a B450 board, with at least a Zen+ CPU. You may not get the timings much tighter, but you should be able to get around the sweet spot on both Gens of CPU's. To me, that would be 3400 on Zen+ and 3600 on Zen2. Just my thoughts, hope this helps making a decision.
