Kingston HyperX Predator 2666mhz Memory review (Z77)

V2011 is the first release of 3DStudio Max to fully support the Windows 7 operating system. This is a professional level tool that many people use for work purposes and our test will show any possible differences between board design today.

Autodesk 3ds Max Design 2011 software offers compelling new techniques to help bring designs to life by aggregating data, iterating ideas, and presenting the results.

Streamlined, more intelligent data exchange workflows and innovative new modeling and visualization tools help significantly increase designers’ creativity and productivity, enabling them to better explore, validate, and communicate the stories behind their designs.

Major new features:

  • Slate: A node based material editor.
  • Quicksilver: Hardware renderer with multithreaded rendering engine that utilizes both CPU and GPU.
  • Extended Graphite Modeling Toolset
  • 3ds Max Composite: A HDRI-capable compositor based on Autodesk Toxik.
  • Viewport Canvas toolset for 3D and 2D texture painting directly in the viewport
  • Object Painting: use 3D geometry as ‘brushes’ on other geometry
  • Character Animation Toolkit (CAT): now integrated as part of the base package
  • Autodesk Material Library: Over 1200 new photometrically accurate shaders
  • Additional file format support: includes native support for Sketchup, Inventor
  • FBX file linking
  • Save to Previous Release (2010)

We created a new 6200×2400 scene and recorded the time for the hardware to finalise the render.

Very strong results from the Kingston HyperX Predator 2,666mhz as the extra bandwidth allows a small performance boost over even the 2,400mhz memory. The 1,600mhz and 1,333mhz memory hampers system results due to limited bandwidth.

  1. almost wet myself at those results. Any ideas when its out? I bought a Corsair H100 last month, what a cooler ! love it to death.

  2. Very impressive kit. That said, 2,666mhz memory is still a little overpriced IMO. 2,400mhz is a lot cheaper and I wouldn’t think many people could notice the difference in the real world.

    im waiting on 3,200mhz kits 🙂

  3. you can get 16GB of slightly slower memory for 2,666mhz prices. Not for me, but interesting to read. I can see it being worthwhile in the pro industry for rendering.

  4. @ Darth Digglers. No one needs 16GB of memory for gaming or even ordinary duties. id rather put the money into speed, not quanitity.

  5. Good memory, shame they went for such huge heatspreaders, id have bought 16GB of it for my Z77 board, but id need to check my phanteks cooler I reckon before it would work right in the slots due to spacing.
