New Memory Installed

[coffeefoot]

I just today received and installed this memory LINK
I haven't tested it yet, so this is just first impression.
I found the best way for me to install is as follows,
1. I upgraded the mobo bios to the latest Asus 1805
2.With the default settings, installed 1 stick at a time, rebooted, check the bios to make sure the new stick was recognized.
3.Once all the sticks were in , and the bios read them correctly, I then set XMP profile. After this all the proper settings were set automatically.
Like I said, I haven't run benchmarks yet, but I can tell you this system is working much better. Big change from Corsair Vengance @ 1600 mhz.
Big shout out to Andre for bringing these to my attn. Thanks.

coffee, you will want to relink that link, it was a bad link.

its known that the sandy/ivy bridge processors love the speed. most settle on the
1600 for gaming/monetary aspect. 33% faster RAM speed does make things
crisper and responsive in alot of applications.

You definitely know what you are talking about. I couldn't get above 4.4 with the old ram. With the 2133 I already hit 4.5 @ 1.18v, steady for 20 hrs on Aida stress. With room temp @ 22c temps settled @ 68/70c. I'll work with this for a while before trying to go up somore.
