Nice performance and price

I don't like the new style of the Ripjaws I think the original style looked better, still good RAM though.
 
Damn I do like the colour, I can imagine it in a Iron Man themed case, good timings as well, good honest thorogh review as always, many thanks

I can't find them anywhere to buy. How much are they gonna cost?

It says £150 in the conclusion, they probably aren't out yet but Ebuyer and Overclockers usually stock the Ripjaw RAM so keep an eye on those.
 
Cheers i missed that.

I just bought the 4 Gb Kingston Hyper-X 2133Mhz Genesis off the back of OC3D review. Benchies seem pretty similar to these. No need to send them back!
 
Ive got 12gb of this stuff and they go a hell of a lot faster when tweaked.... my timing are much better than what you have on your review.

And the fact that you have 2gb sticks compared to the 4gb sticks used here cant have anything to do with that ?

Six of these will put you on 24GB not 12 (assuming 2011 socket will have room for six) or 4x4 = 16GB

Ps not trying to diss you but was just wondering if that could make a difference

OT : I would like to know how these compare to the mushkin red ridline 2133mhz , 8gb which in holland is way below the 150 pound price (starting from €120)

Anyways, cool review as ever

wopps my typing mistake .. still the timing's are way faster and if that's what's he trying to say then review the same sticks i have ... and btw i have never seen any noticeable difference going from 12gb to 24gb with the 4gb sticks cos i sent them back. (it was ordered by mistake and sent back when i found i didn't need them). As for the timings on the 4gb's well i cannot answer that as i didnt test them for timings at the time.

any way more to the point there faster than what the review says they are.
 
Quick question: Do those fit under the D14, because I know some of the GSkill do fit?

Love to see the 2133MHz on 4GB DIMMs.

same here as member THD above question, here are the prices in the UK:

8GB Mushkin Redline Ridgeback #996997 (2x4GB) DDR3 2133MHz 9-11-10-28 £112.62 inc. VAT

8GB G.Skill DDR3 PC3-17000 2133MHz RipjawsX..£ 146.78 Inc VAT

that makes quite a difference when you purchase 16 GB so I would really like to know, apart from the included fan cooling makes the 8GB G.Skill DDR3 PC3-17000 2133MHz RipjawsX. So special?

That looks like a good memory kit, however I would be more interested in the 8GB Mushkin Redline Ridgeback 2133MHz

Isn´t the Mushkin Redline 996996 Frostbite the better choice for Nh-D14??? Chips are the same as in the Ridgeback, but Heatsink is lower and the price also (Ridgeback about 106,- €, RipjawsX 161,-€ (!!!) and Frostbite 91,-€

What would you think should i purchease??? (My Board is the ASRock Fatal1ty Z68 Gen3 with i7 2600k and the NH-D14 Cooler. Case ist the ATCS 840 from Cooler Master.)
