Winrar is a useful ‘real world' test to analyse system performance, including memory bandwidth. We create a custom folder with files of multiple sizes inside and then measure performance in kilobytes per second.
Increasing the memory overclock gives impressive results with this particular test, with more system bandwidth, the results are noticeably improved.

great results from such big memory sticks. thanks!
Interesting results, I would have though latencies would need reduced due to board population. Kingston clearly got their heads screwed on !
ahhh nice looking modules. quite expensive, but I suppose its like buying two ‘normal’ kits!
I love those heat spreaders and its nice to see good performing memory without the oversized spreaders. More enthusiasts want the big cooler like noctua NHd14 and its not a possible combo
They are expensive, but not a rip off. if people wanted 16gb in their system, this is the way to go, I wonder though if performance would lower with 4 of them in a system, lower latencies etc/
I always liked Kingston heatspreaders, they look very futuristic and purty.
2000mhz is quite an achievement really from these. you know how to OC Z, thats for sure !
bit expensive for me, but nice kit as always. you gurus always get the nice stuff!
I have been trying to buy a set of these for a month now,. no stock anywhere. anyone got links in the UK for buy now ?
No stocks either in Germany. Zardon send me yours please.
The lifetime warranty is a good bonus. wonder if they could tell if you overvolted them and they died 🙂
Good oc’s for big sticks
I can honestly say ive never owned a kingston product, but I liked the look of that SSD you reviewed last week. they seem to be producing some quality goods lately.
I might get kingston memory for my next system, probably 4gb though, not 8. thats a lot of dosh
nice performance, and good review.
they make the sexiest coloured heatspreaders on the market.
Dont mean to sound like im picking holes, but the price seems a little over the odds, 2gb modules are cheap. 4gb are way overpriced.
Wen to look for prices, non in stock anywhere. not much use doing reviews KG if you cant buy the goods
Nice, but too much cash, 2x4gb kits are better value now.
Kingston are good, I had one of their SSds in the past and although they failed to get firmware updates out, it performed well.
I like those, quality product.
A very high quality product, if rather expensive, one for a designer or a designer/gamer who didnt want to compromise. sadly i yet to see any need for 8gb for gaming.
rather sexual performance there. almost got carried away with the end result.
When I find these, ill order them, but it might be a while, looking at stock levels.
Kingston are very underrated.
Is it justifiable to be spending almost 1000 buck on memory?
no stock here in France. useless
great review but I must join the masses and say, I cant buy them.
Wish I could get these, noticed them on another site a while ago, as a preview. but im shocked the review is up and no stock is anywhere in sight
i bet they would overclock higher if you cranked them to 1,75 volt
found this review via google, very good indeed. 2000mhz is good for such large modules. I would be interested, but it seems no where has them in stock anyway
I’m using these same chips on a ASUS Crosshair IV Formula board with an AMD X6 1100T cpu,. what should my timing & voltage be set at to get the best performance at 1600 MHz with these here chips. Please advice with as much detail as possible.
