HyperX FURY 8GB 1600MHz DDR3 CL10 (HX316C10FB/8)

Works wonders. I love to create videos and used to have 8gb of Ripjaws 1600mhz ram. While that ram worked well It was limiting since I wanted to see more of the video but I had to decrease the view because of ram limitation. Now with this ram I can finally see the whole clip without having the program crash due to lack of ram. As for gaming I only saw for optimized games an fps bump of 3-5fps. Using a FX 8350 and a R9 390x. Faster ram does help the FX 8350 at 4.7 ghz. Like I have said I have yet tested the ram to full potential closed I got to 11gb of usage was a Simulator game called Star Citizen but since the game is not optimized I will just leave it to say It brought 10 frames of a Jump while running its max state of very High.

For the Windows OS. because of the ram speed (not amount) I did feel that opening files were a lot quicker than my 1600mhz 2x4gb of ram.

Overall best ddr3 ram I picked up. I was also lucky to get this at a cheaper price but at free shipping I have also recieved this 5 days earlier than it was expected :D.

(Reminder to new PC builders) Once you connect the ram into the Motherboard remember to start the pc into Bios to set its Speed. Most Motherboards do not change ram speed by auto. I myself have a asus m5a99fx pro r2.0 and when I first started it did not change my ram speed it started with 1600mhz for the 16gb of ram. You need to set it manually. I used to have a MSI mobo and for me It changed the ram speed by auto. To check ram speed I will suggest using CPU-Z or even the easier way of Task Manager/ Performance / Memory where on the right it will tell you the usage and speed of the ram.

While I have only used this ram for about 4 days I have heavily used it for hours in rendering and in gaming before Christmas eve. There are many reviews other than Amazon that you can trust here is one for example :

I also make gameplay videos with some games here :

this memory will run on this mb bought back in 2012 at best buy. Before i was using speeds of 1333. The bios version of this mb 4101 will run top speed of 1600! Matched with a ssd 850 EVO the results are outstanding compared to what i was running. after installing you may have to restart a few times, and or turn off turn back on your computer until your able to save the new settings in the BIOS. Timing is 9-10-9-26. Dual channel. Running on a I7-3770 intel processor. Should run both sticks to make it work. Tested with just one blank screen. Put both in passed the bios and went straight to sign on on windows. Weird things did happen until i finally was able to make it into the bios to save the new settings. you may not have this problem because i had removed and clean my cpu before installing the new memory. That may have been my problem but solved after finally making it to the bios to save settings and boot from ssd and not mechanical drive. Make sure you update to bios version 4101 before installing could save you some pain and suffering if you try before hand or maybe not. VERY HAPPY with the results. Xceeded my expectations. Didn’t think really this memory would be accepted. but it was, and went straight to 1600 speed.

I feel like Kinston’s HyperX Fury ram is very underrated. Everyone like to go ga-ga over Corsair Vengeance stuff (and I have 4 sticks of low profile vengeance stick myself), but I feel like this HyperX Fury ram is as good if not a little better. There’s no green ram plastic showing for instance, and the basic black and white letting is VERY stylish. The ram also set itself to 1866 on the Asus 970 Pro Gaming Aura board I used automatically without needing to be manually set to that speed in the bios.

Plus, the low profile heatsinks make it easier to use with aftermarket coolers. 8gb of this ram will do you well for web browsing and most gaming. I don’t recommend 4gb anymore however, as it’s just not enough, even for web browsing. Chrome in particular is a memory hog, as are many web-apps. Going from 4gb to 8gb on my mother’s computer for instance made even stuff like Hotmail / Outlook fly when it was sluggish before. Even video streaming sites loaded stuff faster.

If you play more demanding games, 12-16gb may be worthwhile, but for I feel that 8gb is enough for now.

Swapped out 6GB and they work perfectly, pushing my system life out for a few more years hopefully. while I’m not too hung up on appearances they do look good in the old machine.

Great quality Ram I had boughten two sticks of it a couple years back and wanted to upgrade to 12 gigabytes so I bought one more and it works great no complaints I like the case it comes in not the packaging case but the blue metal case around the ram itself and it’s sturdy durable and last long time I’ve never had Ram go out on me except for one time and it wasn’t the stuff it was actually a PNY stick of ram that burnt out on me anyway if you’re like me and you can’t afford to upgrade your computer every part at once and have to do stuff one at a time and use the affordable route this is a great product and I also use AMD processors I recently purchased the Andy Black 6 core 3.4 gigahertz processor and that is working amazing with this RAM and my Asus M5 a plus board with USB 3.0 the only problem I had was getting the USB 3.0 2 install correctly when I do a fresh install of Windows 7 I had to manually go in and update the drivers for the USB ports but the RAM is perfect great Buy go for it if you’re looking for a fordable good Ram and it’s DDR3 1333 4 gigabyte stick
