Revainrating 5 out of 5

MOBO did NOT like this RAM. Constantly broke my system.

I think the cards I got worked because I ran memtest and they passed, but for some reason my MOBO DID NOT like them when I tried to boot them through to use on Windows. I kept getting BSOD. Different mistakes every time. So if your MOBO is the same as mine, get something else. I tried manually setting the clock to 2666MHz, I tried manually setting the clock lower (which made it a bit more stable), I tried increasing the voltage to 1.4V (again, a bit more stable). The final FAST stable setting was at 2133MHz at 1.4V and I would still show BSOD at least once a day. For some reason he just didn't like the memory. If you have a different setup, try it. I don't think it was the memory. I think it was a compatibility issue with my MOBO. This is just a warning for people who have a similar setup. My system specs are: CPU: i5-6600K 3.3GHz GPU: GTX 970MOBO: ASUS Z170 Pro Gaming I just installed another RAM and my computer is working fine again. the same MOBO will deal with G.SKILL RIPJAWS DDR4-3200. It's a bit more expensive but has better performance and most importantly it's stable with my setup.

Pros
  • I'm looking forward to
Cons
  • Factor Set
