Kingston HyperX BEAST - Now with Black PCBs!

2013-03-30
how's it going guys today I'm gonna be taking a quick look at Kingston's new and improved HyperX beast memory now if you're wondering what the difference is between this beast and the beast that's currently out there on the market if you look down here you can see that these modules feature fully black painted PCBs and it's really cool because Kingston is actually taken a lot of user feedback and they've sort of responded to that by re releasing their entire Beast lineup with these black PCBs and I for one I'm a huge fan of aesthetic appeal in my rig and I personally hate it when I see a really nice-looking DIMM with awesome heat spreaders and stuff just have a really nasty looking green circuit board sticking out the sides it just really rubs me the wrong way it's like an itch that I can't scratch and essentially the kid I'm looking at today will be a 16 gigabyte kit includes two dims so those are eight gigabyte density sticks and essentially these the beast lineup of memory actually comes in a variety of kits so you can get anywhere from 8 to 64 gigabyte kits a 64 gigabyte kit of this stuff would actually be 8 8 gigabyte sticks and you can also get various speeds so the speeds that we're looking at today are 21 33 mega transfers per second or a thousand sixty six point five megahertz which is pretty darn fast but you can also get anywhere from 1600 up to 2400 mega transfers per second with the beast line of memory so aside from that these are of course ddr3 240 pin dims and they are they do have a cast latency of 11 and are running on one point six volts alright so here's a look up close of one of the two dims in this kit they are exactly identical in appearance of course and right off the bat you can just see the pretty sizable heat spreader up top there it is relatively hollow on the inside you're really just looking at the exterior shell to do most of your thermal dissipation but it should prove to do an effective job at keeping your dims relatively cool aside from that you get a fully black module pretty much right the PCB match matches perfectly with the heat spreader itself and this entire thing is just blacked out completely aside from the HyperX beast and kingston branding right there you also get that same branding on the other side identical except you also gets kit and module information and as soon as this focuses I will read you off the kit model number in case you're interested so aah x2 1 C 1 1 T 3 k2 / 16x whoo I was like reading one of those exams at the optometrist but I think I passed so there you guys have it you know this says bounder look sweet and pretty much any rig considering most rigs these days at least have some element of black in them but that's going to wrap it up for this quick unboxing and look at Kingston's very new and improved HyperX beast memory kit once again this is a 16 gigabyte kit - 8 gig dims and yeah be sure to hit that like button if you enjoyed this video and I'll see you guys in the next one
