Kingston HyperX FURY 8GB 1866MHz DDR3 CL10 DIMM - Black (HX318C10FB/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 : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gP45k2Ux2Q8 I also make gameplay videos with some games here : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCz4dPIwsxfIopWqBhM-y_dw If you have any questions feel free to ask.

My wife has this same type (HyperX Fury 2x8 16GB)and has had it for 5yrs. I've had the 2x4 8GB kit and no issues with the memory either. Happen to be having issues with ATLAS due to it being a memory hog wanting a solid 10-12gb to itself. Testing with wife's kit took care of issue so I ordered another 2x8 16 GB kit. Popped it in and no issues now. Steady 20-40 fps from 10-20fps. Still stucks for a game, but better than before and decent considering its ATLAS/ARK lol Terrible optimization. Other games have no issue getting 60fps vsycn. Even no man sky hovers around 59fps maxed. Anyways, so 3 different kits now over the last 5 years and all work fine. The old 2x4 8GB kit is off to the side in case I need it in the future. I was able to use the 2x4 and 2x8 kit together, but it wanted to auto clock to 1333. That's to be expected. Even though same brand/type, they are two different kits. Manual overclock both kits together to 1866mhz worked sort of, but sometimes it would crash before getting into Windows. After getting into Windows then it was fine. However, I don't like a ticking time bomb lol Never know if it'll crash while in game so just using the 2x8 16GB kit on its own. Works plenty fine and auto clocks to 1866 without a hitch like I mentioned before.

Great stick of Ram so far, had it for a year now with absolutely no problems. Completely reliable, not to mention great looking. I have a 8x2 16GB kit. Built a PC for my lil brother using Hyper X Fury White 1600 4x2 8GB kit and his has been running strong since I built his PC in January. Recommended it to a friend when he decided to build his pc last year, he bought a single stick of Hyper X Fury Blue 1600 8GB ( It was a budget build, but he wanted room to grow, so he chose 1 8GB stick instead of what i recommended 4x2 kit) He has since then bought a second stick over a year later with no compatibility issues.

The Kingston HyperX FURY 8GB (2x4GB) 1600MHz DDR3 kit defined the sweet spot for many PC builders during its run. It successfully combined Kingston's famed reliability with a set-it-and-forget-it feature, making it the ideal upgrade for older desktop computers that still run on DDR3 platforms (like Intel Z77/Z87 or mid-range AMD systems). The Standout Feature: Plug and Play (PnP) Unlike most enthusiast RAM kits which require you to manually go into the BIOS and enable XMP (Extreme Memory Profile) to achieve their advertised speed, the HyperX FURY featured PnP technology. Ease of Use: This memory automatically negotiates with your motherboard to run at its highest rated frequency (1600MHz in this case) without manual configuration. This made installation truly instantaneous and error-free, a huge advantage for users unfamiliar with BIOS settings. Guaranteed Speed: It ensures your computer isn't stuck running at the slower default speed (often 1333MHz), maximizing the performance of your older processor for gaming and multitasking. Performance and Quality Reliable Speed: The 1600MHz CL10 specification is the most stable and compatible performance point for a wide range of older chipsets, providing a substantial boost over basic JEDEC standards. Solid Gaming: For DDR3 systems, the 8GB dual-channel configuration is still a functional amount for running older titles and many modern esports games smoothly. The low latency of CL10 (especially compared to the higher latencies of early DDR4) keeps applications responsive. Lifetime Reliability: Kingston is famous for its quality control. These sticks are renowned for their durability and stability, which is backed by a lifetime warranty, making them a safe long-term investment for a legacy system. Aesthetics and Design The black asymmetrical heat spreader on a black PCB gives the FURY modules an aggressive, modern look that still holds up well today. They provide effective passive cooling while adding a professional, sleek aesthetic to any custom build. Final Verdict: If you are maintaining, upgrading, or building an older computer that requires DDR3 memory, the Kingston HyperX FURY 1600MHz is a near-perfect choice. It offers the fastest speed and lowest latency you can reliably run in most DDR3 systems, packaged in a durable, attractive kit that requires zero hassle to install.

So I had some heartache with this at first but it seems to be resolved now. After all the initial issues the memory works great, PC recognizes I have 32gb of ram now, with these being the second 16gb. No problem! To start, I had some trouble with amazon getting the right item in the mail (which was resolved professionally) and then when I finally received the correct item (This RAM) I was excited to hook it up. Turned off my pc, unplugged the power, placed it in the black slots (I have an Asus-Z97 Pro motherboard, with 2 alternating pairs of A and B RAM slots, two marked with a gray tab and 2 marked with a black tab), made sure they were properly inserted and plugged the power back into my pc. This is where it gets weird. Everything inside my case turned on like normal, graphics card and case fans came on, all the pretty lights were on and all, however my keyboard, mouse and razer firefly did NOT turn on at all and the monitor didn't display anything as if the pc wasnt connected, as if they didn't get any power. However the same USB strip I have my firefly connected to I have a desktop fan connected to, and the fan turned on. At this point I thought I may have destroyed my PC somehow, even though I was entirely grounded out. I removed all RAM except one of the new sticks and the PC started like normal and the monitor came on. It said there was an issue with RAM overclocking and I would need to re-run the setup of my PC. I turned everything off again and put all 4 RAM sticks back in, with the new RAM in the slots where my original RAM used to be. Turned my PC back on, and everything worked perfectly and I now have 32 GB of RAM. I think this whole process uncovered a problem somehow, but I'm not tech savvy enough to know what it is. Also, this is just another air-head thing I noticed, and I probably shouldn't do it anyways but it's not a problem with any other parts of mine, but I was curious how hot my new RAM is running, and when I touched it (mind you with myself grounded out, although it probably didn't matter), my PC turned off and back on as though I did a manual restart. I'm sure this isn't supposed to happen. If I could get a professional's opinion on these 2 issues, I would like that. Otherwise it's working amazingly for me, and I like the RAM. It also looks sleek! By the way, the RAM runs at a medium temp :)

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.

Normally I don't write reviews for products on here. I used to a while back, but it's probably been over a year since I've left one. This time, however, I HAD to leave one. It's not so much for the product itself because it's RAM. RAM is RAM for the most part, and it also looks nice in my opinion. It's also outdated RAM now with DDR4 and we're even on the cusp of DDR5 coming out in the next few years, but I have a system that's just over 3 years old, so that's what I bought these for. I built my own system in 2015 with a 2x4GB set of RAM, but after being an idiot online with torrenting, I got a bunch of viruses and had to do multiple OS reinstalls to be rid of the problem. I don't know what happened, but perhaps my RAM suffered because I'd still get occasional BSOD's, intermittent internet connection, random crashes in games, etc, so it seemed to me like one of the modules had a bad sector, but no matter how many memory tests I ran, I never had any errors. I then ordered this new set of 2x8GB just to verify the RAM was the problem because I'd checked everything else. What inspired me to write this review was the CUSTOMER SERVICE! I originally decided to buy 2 sets of 16GB RAM but then after ordering, I realized that there's no way I'd ever make use of the full 32GB any time soon. So I tried to cancel one set and the website wouldn't let me. I either had to keep both, then return one after shipping, or cancel both. I thought that couldn't possibly be the only solutions so I called customer service. Yup, that was all that could be done. So the rep had me cancel the order completely, reorder the items, and because of that inconvenience of having to reorder instead of cancelling just one set of modules, he upgraded me to free 1-Day shipping. I thought that was AWESOME! I've been a customer of Amazon for almost 10 years, and I will continue to be one since they have some of the BEST customer service in the world. Thank you Amazon, and thank you Kingston! If these RAM modules have any issues, I'll update the review to reflect them.

First things first. The shipping (because the shipping is obviously a critical part of the Amazon experience). I ordered this from antonline because their feedback seemed so overwhelmingly positive. I didn't really expect the shipping to be all that fast (especially for free shipping) and it wasn't. It took several days. Which is not terrible (in the context of the fact that Amazon orders seem to be taking longer and longer these days). The problem was the tracking. It was fairly accurate in when it said it was going to be here but it was also pretty vague. For a few days, it just said "Shipped" and "In transit" or something like that. I had no clue where it shipped from or where on earth it was. I could only use the vague estimate of "It'll probably be there sometime between these five days" to try and know when to be ready for it. And I mean, let's be honest here. This isn't a pack of socks. This is a delicate computer part. It's not terribly expensive but it's 40 bucks. It's not the kind of thing you want to play around with. Well, OK. So, at the end, it took about 4 days and Amazon's tracking info didn't really give me any specific details of exactly where it was until the very last day when it was out for delivery. If I hadn't been home that day, I would have obviously missed the delivery. SO......the product itself? Seems fine. I'm not super knowledgeable about RAM or specs or any of that. But here is my basic system (for reference). Motherboard - Gigabyte G1 Sniper A88X (With the latest F11 BIOS) APU - AMD A10 7860K Samsung 850 Evo SSD Seasonic 550 watt Gold PSU The memory I was replacing was 6 gigs of generic Kingston 1600 RAM that came with a system I bought years ago. Much was made of the fact that you should just be able to pop this HyperX Fury in and have your BIOS change all the settings for you. Which is true (kinda). It did indeed show up as 1866 RAM as soon as I rebooted. However, I wasn't all that sure I was getting better performance. In fact, something about the system seemed a bit laggy. I thought this was probably just my imagination but I started looking around in the BIOS. I noticed the Northbridge frequency was set at 1600. I started doing some benchmarks just to see if I could see any performance drop and I did notice that it said the RAM was slower than it should be. I debated whether or not to risk raising the northbridge frequency as I had heard somewhere that it should be at least equal to your RAM speed. I don't know where I read that and couldn't find it again when I was looking for it. But I finally tried it and the benchmark scores definitely went up for the RAM. So I can only assume that you will not get the advertised speed out of this RAM if your northbridge frequency remains at 1600 (Someone please comment on this and let me know if I'm right or wrong here). Of course this site I was using for benchmarks was comparing my scores to those everyone else was getting with the same RAM. It is likely most of those people were overclocking their systems to the max. Still, the RAM scores I was getting right out of the gate were well below what seemed normal and they jumped considerably when I changed the northbridge to 1900. I even tried reloading the optimized defaults for my motherboard so the BIOS would automatically choose the settings for the APU and RAM. The northbridge frequency auto set itself to 1600 on this MB. So I don't really know if this is correct to change this setting. Don't take my word for it because I don't know anything, really. Just that I got significantly better scores when I changed the freauency. I did not change the frequency for the RAM, as I wanted to see if the northbridge setting seemed to be the bottleneck and it appears to be.
