Review on White Timetec Pinnacle Konduit 16GB KIT(2X8GB) DDR4 3600MHz PC4-28800 CL18-22-22-42 XMP2.0 Overclocking 1.35V RAM For AMD And Intel Gaming Desktop PCs by Sean Reddy

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent speed/performance and stability for the price

Products like this are honestly incredibly underrated, but I'm sure that's part of what keeps the price low, so I'm not really complaining. And by "products like this" I mean DRAM that's almost entirely oriented to function rather than form or "gamer" aesthetics.The truth is that, even for a 3600MHz kit, heat spreaders are entirely superfluous, so I'd rather not pay any extra for them. Likewise, I couldn't care less about RGB support, so it's nice to have an option that completely cuts the nonsense out of the equation. That said, it is nice to see that Timetec went with black PCBs for these DIMMs, that way they don't draw attention to themselves in the wrong way.As for performance, this kit is all you could ask for: stable performance running at full rated speed in both XMP and manually overclocked. I suspect one could probably push it higher/faster, but I don't have any need, and 3600MHz is already plenty for the Ryzen 3 3200G APU (definitely seeing good graphics gains over the slower 2400MHz kit I was using before this arrived.All in all, it's a great 2x8GB kit, and pretty stellar value at around $65 compared to other gamer-focused brands, which is pretty amazing seeing as they're still using Hynix memory modules.

Pros
  • The sleek design and white color of the RAM perfectly match the aesthetics of a modern gaming setup
Cons
  • Might not be durable enough for long term use
