welcome to a nun protium unprompted impromptu unboxing I here in the crazy Russian laboratory which is actually messier than usual you guys going to do something about this I mean look at this beats headphones who leaves this kind of stuff lying around disgusting anyway back to the product that I'm unboxing today so this is AMD's radeon edition memories so i don't know if you guys remember this but when they first launched the AMD memory there was entertainment edition performance edition and there was supposed to be radeon edition but it never materialized it's finally here so the Radeon grade memory is clocked at higher frequencies than the entertainment and performance edition series of memory other than that the heat spreader is very similar the aesthetic is very similar the whole idea behind it is very similar where they're using J deck timing so that you don't have any difficulty with compatibility and controlling the bomb that is the Bill of Materials the stuff being used in it so that compatibility will be optimized for AMD system so all those concepts are still there with the radeon series having slightly more performance in this case the memory that i've got right here is actually running at eighteen sixty six megahertz however the timings are a little bit on oh no these are cl9 1.5 volts so actually these are these look pretty good ok so blah blah blah low profile heat spreader usher's protection and high compatibility testing running frequencies up to 1866 and programmed with da tak timings so all this should be pretty straightforward remember guys just because it's AMD memory doesn't mean it only works in AMD systems it'll also work in an intel system just fine the kid i have here is a 2 by 4 gig kit although they are available in a wide variety of different configurations so here you can see what they mean by low-profile heat spreader so it's pretty much right even with the top of the PCB which means no matter what kind of a heatsink you got going on on your cpu you're not going to have any difficulty with clearance i mean some memory out here here's a perfect example a patriot viper kit that has sort of a higher heat spreader on it might have compatible I issues so they're that pretty much covers it so if you've got an AMD system and you want AMD memory to go with it because it has like a sweet black PCB and sweet black and red color scheme then you could go with AMD memory to match your sweet black and red color schemes thanks for checking out this episode of Linus tech tips and don't forget to subscribe
