Nemo Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 Today we're looking at a memory kit that comes set up for water cooling straight from the manufacturer as we check out the Kingston HyperX H2O PC3 16000 3x2GB Cas 9 - http://www.overclockersclub.com/reviews/kingston_hyperx_h20/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryTaco Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 Today we're looking at a memory kit that comes set up for water cooling straight from the manufacturer as we check out the Kingston HyperX H2O PC3 16000 3x2GB Cas 9 - http://www.overclockersclub.com/reviews/kingston_hyperx_h20/ Funny, earlier this week I was surfing the web like a madman, looking for a legit review of these Modules. Lo and behold one drops in right under my nose here at OCC. Thank You Ccokeman for the Review. I am wondering why Kingston would apply what seems to be a decent cooling solution to a somewhat average set of modules. I think their air-cooled versions are higher performing that these. I just cannot believe its the cooling solution that is holding these back, my guess is that its the quality of the ram. Why they wouldnt put their best modules up for this solution is beyond my kin.

Ccokeman can correct me if I'm wrong, but it was not the cooling solution that held these back, but rather his CPU. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 Ccokeman can correct me if I'm wrong, but it was not the cooling solution that held these back, but rather his CPU. You are correct. Frank reached the limit on his memory controller. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 I'm relieved that they are at least very low restriction (being essentially a 1/4 ID tube with barbs) for those that really want to cool *everything* with water. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GabrielT Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 I don't know why 9-10-9-27 is bad at 2000mhz + I guess I don't get it. My current ram stock frequency is 1333 at 9-9-9-24. Yeah I can tighten them up to 7-7-7-20 but at the stock settings they overclock better up into 1600mhz range. Good modules but loose is not a word that can be applied to these timings at that high of speed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But these modules can do 7-9-7 at 2000Mhz with some voltage tweaking so there is room for improvement unless I have my reviews mixed up!

ccokeman Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 DDR3 at the high end has been pretty good for a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
