our coverage of PAX Prime 2015 is powered by hyperx check out their Cloud

2 in the link in the video description down below also thanks to ASUS and
0:08
Corsair with us here today we have a few different types of RAM we have a fury
0:12
DDR3 L kit an impact ddr4 kind of like
0:15
laptop and small machine kit and a Savage ddr4 kit which is running at some
0:20
different capacities and speeds but one of the most interesting things at this
0:23
show that i' would like to cover is ddr4 and DDR3 prices becoming more familiar
0:29
and similar to each other last year when I covered something at PA Prime ddr4 was
0:34
astronomically expensive and just not very easy to get your hands on now it's
0:39
more ubiquitous it's more available everywhere and the pricing is finally
0:42
becoming closer to where DDR3 was there's still a Delta it's still more
0:46
expensive but it's becoming more accessible now that Skylake is going to
0:49
be a thing and all all that kind of stuff is coming out very good to see
0:53
first up I'll start with Fury ddr3l this is the low voltage kit so this is going
0:57
to be running at 1.35 volts when it's in your system it's also going to be
1:01
running at 1600 MHz or 1866 MHz 8 GB
1:05
capacity or 16 GB capacity and that's
1:09
about it we're moving away from this but it's kind of interesting because if you
1:12
want to retire some old Hardware onto like a server or something it might be a
1:17
good and nice idea to get low voltage RAM next up we have impact ddr4 this
1:21
goes in like laptops and small Microsystems it's pretty freaking fast
1:25
for what it is at 2666 MHz you'll be running at a cast latency of 15 at 2400
1:30
MHz he'll be running at cl14 and 2133
1:33
MHz he'll be running at CL 13 at its fastest speeds uh there's not actually a
1:38
lot of stuff out that you can even plug this into so compatibility down the line
1:42
is going to be fairly interesting and you might want to check that out before you buy it but if you want to run this
1:46
kit as fast as it can go you're probably going to want to pair it with a pretty
1:49
badass processor just so you guys know next up we have Savage ddr4 now I know
1:53
this isn't new but it's now in Black before it was just red now it's black
1:58
this should be cheaper than your Predator op ions and somewhat closer to
2:01
DDR3 than that fairly expensive Predator kit this will be coming at 2133 MHz at
2:06
cast latency 13 2400 MHz at cl2 2600 MHz
2:11
at CL 13 2800 MHz at cl14 and 3,000 MHz
2:16
at cl15 this will come in up to 8 by 16
2:20
GB capacity so you can get 128 gigs of this RAM if you're running it at a
2:24
maximum speed of 2666 MHz all right guys
2:27
I hope you liked watching this memory update at the hyperx Booth thank you to
2:30
hyperx for sending us here this year check out their YouTube channel and the
2:33
cards link up here in this kind of corner they make a whole bunch of cool
2:37
like gaming inspired videos and stuff there we even have Cloud9 right in front
2:41
of me right now which is pretty badass so go there and check them out be sure
2:44
to subscribe and whatnot also thank you to ASUS and Corsair you can see all the
2:48
products from everybody in the link in the video description down below that they brought to PX 2015 this year
