Patriot DDR4-4133MHz RAM with Gigabyte Z390 Aurous Ultra MB

On Black Friday I bought a set of Patriot Viper Steel Series 2x8GB 4133MHz RAM for the new Gigabyte Z390 Aurous Ultra MB build. When the build was complete I couldn't get the RAM to run at XMP speeds. I was able to overclock the RAM to 2666MHz fairly easily. After some research, I found out that MB uses a T-shaped topology for RAM, which can work better with all 4 RAM slots used. So I bought another 2x8GB set. After the installation, I set the RAM to XMP profile 2 (4000 MHz) and the computer worked without any problems. The RAM was good value for money (for both purchases) and still works in games today and is stable.

Pros
  • Like everything before
Cons
  • Style 90
