Type of review

I took this RAM to build a PC "cheap and cheerful" for my beloved mother in red and black shades . but even overdid it and came out with a gaming PC))) With two strips of this RAM, 8 GB RX580 and a 9th generation processor i7- 9700k))))) According to tests, the memory gives out everything that is stated in the characteristic, there are no complaints. Special thanks for the design. Mom is happy))) Cyril 29 years old))))

Pros
  • Performance according to the declared characteristics, and of course the design
Cons
  • There is none of them

Good for the price.

had to enable xmp for ram to run at 2666. Check your mobo, most supported speeds can only be reached in BIOS/UEFI via xmp profiles.

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • expensive insurance

RAM module not detected, at least 8 gigabytes left

This product seemed good out of the box, but within a month I was seeing some performance spikes in my system, enough for me to get on with all of going into the settings to the bios to find out and I found that this stick which I had added to support the other stick I was using was not being recognized. Fast forward a few days and I had a chance to take it to one of my networking classes. There, the readings from the test kit indicated that it was faulty. So I don't know of any other…

Pros
  • Brilliantly done
Cons
  • Hard to say

Great memory for the price!

I bought a kit of 8GB (2 x 4GB) Viper Elite 2666MHz RAM (PVE48G266C6KGY) to run it on my Asus ROG Strix B450 Gaming MB with Ryzen 5 2600 OC up to 4GHz use. My original 3rd party RAM failed so I sent it in for RMA and bought it to use until I can get a replacement RAM. This RAM easily overclocks to 2933 with the same timings as the 2666MHz XMP profile (16-17-17). -17-36). According to Thaiphoon Burner, this is SpecTek (Micron) Single Rank (A Die I believe). Overall I am very impressed with this…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Reliable memory - don't listen to fools

This is reliable memory at a solid price. I personally switched to a set of Corsair sticks because I realized I wanted a higher clock speed for my Ryzen, but this RAM is as advertised. There are a few idiots who leave one star reviews because they don't understand how overclocking works; You see it as 2133 in the BIOS and assume something is wrong with the memory - NO, the memory is fine. All memory is there by default, you'll need to enable XMP overclocking in the BIOS to get the advertised…

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • Minor problems

Fixed memory - don't listen to fools

Good memory at a solid price. I personally switched to a set of Corsair sticks because I realized I wanted a higher clock speed for my Ryzen, but this RAM is as advertised.

Incredible reliability - Runs at 2666MHz as advertised

I've had this RAM (2x16GB kit) for over a year now. All the time he was solid with no problems. I ran memtest86 the day I first got it. No mistakes. I'm running this on an MSI Z390-A PRO with XMP enabled. The correct acceleration rate was found immediately. If you are new to this RAM speed, remember that you need to enable XMP to run it at the advertised speed. If you can't do that, then it's a BIOS issue, not a RAM issue. Those who leave bad reviews that they cannot work at the advertised…

Pros
  • Limited lifetime warranty
Cons
  • Boring packaging
