G.Skill F3-12800CL9T-6GBNQ 6GB Triple Channel DDR3 RAM Kit Unboxing & First Look Linus Tech Tips

2010-02-02
so today I'm having a quick look at a g.skill triple channel memory kit this is a fairly basic kit in that the timings and specs are not very impressive until you get to the final bit so first of all this is a 1600 megahertz kit so it's two gigs by three sticks 1600 megahertz cast nine so it uses nine nine nine twenty four times we're gonna go ahead and get it out there isn't really anything in particular on the back triple channel blah blah blah four core i7 so because it's a triple channel kit it's going to be optimized for the core i7 that's the LGA 1366 core i7 not the 1156 one and the interesting thing about this kit of memory is the 1.5 volt rating do you skills been doing this a lot lately they've been taking all of their RAM and they've been instead of rating it at a certain speed with one point six five volts which is the maximum recommended by Intel they've been cutting them down more and more so you see some g.skill kits down at 1.5 volts or even as low as one point three five volts and what that means besides the fact that you're going to have it run cooler and use less power it also means that you can potentially get more overclocking out of it and now do you skills famous for their overclock ability but what that means is if you've got a kit that's rated at a certain speed 1.5 volt it will almost always overclock higher than a kit that's rated at the same speed with one point six five volts so thank you for checking out my quick unboxing of this g.skill 6g B&Q triple channel memory kit
