Review on πŸ’ͺ Enhance Performance with Patriot Viper Steel DDR4 8GB 3000MHz Memory Module - PVS48G300C6 by Tim Ross

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Will not run consistently at advertised speeds

I recently put together my first true Ryzen build and the word for Ryzen seems to be getting the fastest RAM you can afford, because he has quite a bit of memory. Effects on your game performance. I wanted 32GB at an affordable price so I went with this memory as the advertised speed of 3200MHz was the lowest I wanted to work at. This memory can't handle that speed, I had to drop it down to 2900MHz in the BIOS to run games like Rust and Subnautica without crashing every hour or so. I spent hours fixing this issue before overclocking the memory and haven't had a single crash since. However, my FPS dropped an average of 5-8 frames in both Subnautica and Rust. I think you get what you pay for. I will soon use this memory in another build and replace it with higher quality sticks.

Pros
  • Capacity: DDR4 8GB single module
Cons
  • Security
