1 00:00:07,279 --> 00:00:14,080 Welcome to an unpro unpromptu impromptu 2 00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:16,240 unboxing uh here in the crazy Russian 3 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:20,720 laboratory which is actually messier than usual. You guys got to do something 4 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:25,119 about this. I mean look at this Beats headphones. Who leaves this kind of 5 00:00:22,240 --> 00:00:30,640 stuff lying around? Disgusting. Anyway, back to the product that I'm unboxing 6 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:33,600 today. So, this is AMD's Radeon edition memories. So, I don't know if you guys 7 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:36,880 remember this, but when they first launched the AMD memory, there was 8 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:40,320 entertainment edition, performance edition, and there was supposed to be 9 00:00:38,239 --> 00:00:45,600 Radeon edition, but it never materialized. It's finally here. So, the 10 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:50,239 Radeon grade memory is clocked at higher frequencies than the entertainment and 11 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:53,920 performance edition series of memory. Um, other than that, the heat spreader 12 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:57,920 is very similar. The aesthetic is very similar. The whole idea behind it is 13 00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:01,680 very similar where they're using JDK timing so that you don't have any 14 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:05,519 difficulty with compatibility and controlling the bomb that is the bill of 15 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:10,080 materials the stuff being used in it so that compatibility will be optimized for 16 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:14,479 AMD systems. So all of those concepts are still there with the Radeon series 17 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:20,560 having slightly more performance. In this case the memory that I've got right 18 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:22,880 here is actually running at 1866 MHz. 19 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:26,960 However, the timings are a little bit on. Oh, no. These are CL9 1.5 volt. So, 20 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:31,040 actually these are these look pretty good. Okay, so blah blah blah. Low 21 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:34,640 profile heat spreader assures protection and high compatibility testing running 22 00:01:32,799 --> 00:01:37,920 frequencies up to 1866 and program with Jag timings. So, all this should be 23 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:43,759 pretty straightforward. Remember guys, just because it's AMD memory doesn't mean it only works in AMD systems. It'll 24 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:48,159 also work in an Intel system just fine. The kit I have here is a 2x4 gig kit, 25 00:01:46,399 --> 00:01:51,920 although they are available in a wide variety of different configurations. So 26 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:55,680 here you can see what they mean by lowprofile heat spreader. So it's pretty 27 00:01:53,680 --> 00:02:00,079 much right even with the top of the PCB, which means no matter what kind of a 28 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:03,040 heat sink you got going on on your CPU, you're not going to have any difficulty 29 00:02:01,439 --> 00:02:08,239 with clearance. I mean, some memory. Ah, here here's a perfect example. A Patriot 30 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:12,319 Viper kit that has sort of a higher heat spreader on it might have compatibility 31 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:15,920 issues. So there, that pretty much covers it. So, if you've got an AMD 32 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:20,239 system and you want AMD memory to go with it because it has like a sweet 33 00:02:17,920 --> 00:02:25,520 black PCB and sweet black and red color scheme, then you could go with AMD 34 00:02:22,959 --> 00:02:28,640 memory to match your sweet black and red color scheme.
