Considering the new CPUs from Intel and AMD are coming out early next year, odds are it'll be DDR3.
Maybe at a higher spec than the 1333 most boards do at stock, but I doubt DDR4 or 5 would be out by then.Nice review, I've been considering the Ripjaws RAM for a while and nice to see them perform exceptionally.

I use 8GB of this RAM in 2GB sticks in two computers. It works well and the XMP profile is apparent on both Mainboards. So as a set it and forget it solution, you can't go wrong.
I'm building a i7-875K system in mid December and I may use this 8GB kit instead of two 4GB kits for it.
