Review on 16GB (2X8GB) Black Owl Aura Sync RGB 3200MHz CL16 1.35V 288-Pin Desktop Gaming UDIMM DDR4 RAM OLOy MD4U0832161BHJDA by Mandela Buycks

BSOD issues ever since switching to this mess of a kit from Gskill Ripjaws 3200.

If you're into tuning RAM to get the most out of Ryzen, just skip over this kit. There is basically no information out there about what die type this kit uses. Doesn't matter if you go to the OLOY site or what. Thaiphoon also doesn't give enough information on this kit (for those who may seek to invalidate my claims). Not to mention that this kit had issues out of the box for me. Non-stop BSODs with UNEXPECTED_KERNEL_MODE_TRAP error. I already replaced one set, and just don't feel like going through the hassle of replacing them again. I know for a fact that my other hardware is not to blame. I have multiple machines and this RAM has the same issue in all. I get this BSOD multiple times per day. This is pretty damn unacceptable. Also, my settings aside from DOCP are stock MOBO settings, stock CPU settings, hell, even stock GPU settings, just to be sure. Still I get BSODs. What. The. Hell?

Pros
  • The OLOy brand is known for quality and reliability, providing a long-term investment for your gaming PC
Cons
  • May not offer significant benefits for everyday tasks
