Intel i7 3960X EE / Gigabyte GA X79 UD3 / 16GB GSkill Ripjaws Z (2133mhz) Review

For this system build, G Skill sent us 16GB of their Ripjaws Z memory (4x 4GB), which is configured at 2133mhz.

The Ripjaws Z memory uses small black headspreaders, ideal for space hogging oversized CPU coolers.

This memory works at 9-11-10-28 timings at 1.65V.

  1. love the memory and the way gskill dont use massive heatspreaders.

  2. Wish I could afford the processor !

  3. I dont like this bios at all, its a gimmick imo

  4. GSKILL memory is great, corsair is faster in the other review, but I like the fact this isnt using oversized heatspreaders. would help in some instances with particular CPU coolers.

  5. He said the two bottom sata 3 ports were rated for 6 GB/s xD as if. Simple but fatal mistake. Its Gb/s, not GB/s
