Type of review

It is installed in the MSI X570-A-PRO system with an AMD Ryzen 7 2700 BOX processor and a boxed cooler. In theory, the processor supports a maximum of 3533 MHz memory. But this one easily wound up at 3600 MHz with CL16 timings simply by selecting the option in the BIOS via Memory Try-It. I haven’t even tried to disperse it yet, laziness and not why, I have enough, although there is clearly potential. The same DRAM Calculator for Ryzen offers overclocking to 3800 MHz with CL16 timings and a…

Pros
  • Sufficiently fast, very beautiful, reliable memory. It's nice to hold in your hands. Feels like metal. Supports backlight control software from all major motherboard manufacturers. This memory has also been tested for compatibility with boards from major manufacturers based on the latest chipsets. There is also Thermaltake's own RGB control software, a built-in temperature sensor and the ability to link color indication to the temperature of the modules. The manufacturer is reliable, there is a page on the site for this module, "firm '", and not some kind of junk. The price is not overpriced for such quality and performance.
Cons
  • Not the best XMP timings. It is understandable, there they are designed so that the memory works for them with anything. The height of the modules is 50 mm. It may interfere with installing a massive CPU cooler. But there is always a dilemma, either a large cooler or beautiful memory with RGB and heatsinks. Although, you can solve this problem, if you have handles. The dissipative plastic with diodes and the steel plate are removed from one module and glued to the outermost module, which is farther from the processor and does not interfere with the installation of the cooler, then the height of the near module becomes the standard 35 mm, and it will still not be visible under the cooler. As indicated by the manufacturer, it supports Intel X299 , 300 , 200 , 100 Series, AMD X570 chipsets. Although 100% will work on younger AMD chipsets, but not the fact that at 3600 MHz, it depends more on the processor.

A great option for this money, one of the best offers.

Ideal for Ryzen 3000 series CPU. For AMD themselves recommend 3600Mhz as the optimal memory speed. Who takes for AMD - the chips here are Hynix CJR, which of course is not Samsung B-die, but the second best chip for AMD. Not bad overclocking, with the same XMP timings and the same voltage of 1.35V, the memory worked quietly in the 3800Mhz mode. Some pros: Good design, there is integration with lighting software from different manufacturers like Asus, MSI and Razer. The price and design look…

Installation was easy for the hardware. The memory modules are very durable and very well made. The aesthetics of the lighting is really pleasing. The software that this brand seems to have is not very flexible. Setup went fine for the most part, but there was an issue with the lighting not responding to the software. After several days of searching, I finally contacted tech support. A few days later we were able to figure out the problem after realizing that some software was not installed…

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • There are defects

Pretty but best on the inside

Build quality turned out to be a bit better than I expected and they look good but after trying both XMP profiles and also Speed/Voltage/Timings manually, they simply do NOT transmit on 4400 MHz. It has also tried every combination of 1, 2 and 4 sticks. Sometimes they posted at 4200MHz (and then not at the next launch), and in most cases - at 4000MHz. This was on an Asus Maximus XI Hero board with the latest firmware and an i7-9700KF. At this point I decided "good enough" at 4000 MHz. I thought

Pros
  • Useful for more than intended purpose
Cons
  • Frequency

Doesn't reach 4400MHz by default

As some others in the reviews point out, I had the DOCP profile enabled by default and my system wouldn't boot with the clock speed set to 4400MHz. I checked if my motherboard (Asus Prime x570) is on the supported boards list but it doesn't seem to matter. I ended up booting at 4266MHz but less than a day later I got a blue screen error, memory related in Windows so I dropped to 4000MHz and it was stable for a couple of weeks. Not very impressed with RAM, latency is slow and reference speeds…

Pros
  • Brilliantly done
Cons
  • No performance

Great 4400MHz RAM for properly tuned systems!

So I've seen a lot of negative reviews about the 4400MHz version of this RAM stating that it doesn't run at advertised speeds or clock speeds and I have to say these reviews are from those who who they carry form and/or the uninitiated. This RAM will work great at the advertised speeds and clocks IF you've built the right system. The best thing to do when buying RAM is to find the motherboard (MB) you want to use and look at a qualified RAM listing. for this MB. That's how I found this RAM, I…

  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons

Not exactly 4600 with XMP/DOCP/Manual

All settings to enable XMP/DOCP with AMD Ryzen 3900x, Samsung 980 pro m.2, RTX 3090 and 32GB of it on Asus ROG 570 - E with the latest BIOS. When DOCP/XMP is enabled, the board boots and defaults to DDR$ 3200MHz. not 4600. I've tried updating it manually and with the correct voltage, memory clock and cloth clock but it doesn't work. I even tried setting it to 3800 or 4000 and it still doesn't work. I was on the phone with Asus for 2 hours and this memory is activated. QVL NOT WORKING. I met a…

Pros
  • Positive only
Cons
  • Can I add something
