what's up guys and welcome back to Pauls hardware today I'm doing another unboxing for another component that's going in my personal system rebuild because apparently I'm sadistic and I like to put these things off as long as I possibly can but to that end let's take a closer look at this g.skill ripjaws e 32 gigabyte quad channel memory kit now this is actually one of the largest boxes I've ever received for memory being shipped to me and so that's kind of impressive I guess but shiny g.skill logo on the top this is quad channel memory it's actually designed specifically for Intel LGA 2011 processors and x79 platforms however that does not preclude you from using it in a different platform such as on a se mainstream until like Haswell processor or something like that or even maybe on an AMD anything with dual channel but the quad channel XMP settings are going to be a little bit more suited for x79 so that's what I'm using it for should be good to go on the side here you can see the G skills including a lifetime warranty which is about as good as it gets as far as warranties go as far as I'm concerned model number on this one specifically is f3 - 1 9 2 0 0 CL 1 0 Q - 3 2 GB zhd which makes no sense well it kind of makes sense but um it's actually a 4 by 8 gigabyte kit and I went with so much memory because I do video editing video editing requires many many many memories but on the side here you can see they put the stickers for all 4 dims that are included it's one point six 5 volts castle 8 + C 10 and actual timings of 10 12 12 31 here is an accessory that's included from g.skill which I'm not planning on using just because I find that my memory runs cool enough most of the time anyway but this does have a couple fans on it and little clamps and actually provide you with two of these so you can put one on either side if you're going with the quad channel setup because the DIMM slots aren't two opposite sides of the actual where the processor socket is you do have kind of a sleeved cable here molex plug I would prefer if I was going to be critiquing this even though I'm not going to be using it but this had a three pin header rather than just plugging it straight into molex but like I said I'm not going to use it anyway but hey looks pretty cool in box number two surprising enough we have another one of those I already said you get two but there's your confirmation two of those included and then the memory itself is underneath these cardboard things which is upside down awkward to get to but I think I think I can manage all right you have some documentation here on the turbulence to fan that's included that you guys are free to pause and read if you really want to users guide and then the memory which comes in these little pouches okay and I nearly forgot this little accessory - which is a G skill Aggie geese a G skill case veg I sometimes call it G skill but that's just kind of my pet name for the company but some case badges are cool and here's the memory itself I'm only gonna show you guys one of these but trust me there's four of them see there's the other three they all look exactly the same now the Ripjaws e series has sort of a lower profile heat spreader I wouldn't say a low profile because there is some some bling eNOS up on top that provides a bit of additional height which if you really are worried about clearance you might want to look at something else as far as what the heat spreaders they give you are but aesthetically they have a flat black PCB on the memory which I really like because I appreciate the aesthetics and especially when I'm doing YouTube videos I like things to look pretty and it has XMP 1.3 ready so if you have an Intel motherboard or if you have an AMD motherboard that supports Intel XMP profiles you can load those up and it will automatically set it to ddr3 2400 with the timings in place which is in my experience the easiest way to get a memory set at the proper speed and frequency this is certified actually an asus intel x79 based motherboard so that's kind of nice if you're looking for certified and actually tested memory asus worked with g.skill to do that they are all black for the most part and that's kind of why I went with these is I wanted them to blend in and just about any situation there is a blue ripped Ozzy logo there and I was actually kind of on the fence about that actual sticker I don't really know how much it's going to end up bothering me once I get to build together but let me know in the comments if you guys think that the sticker is okay or should I pull it off or should I try to like do something over it so it removes the blue because I don't know how much blue there's gonna be in the rest of my system but apart from that I suppose that about wraps it up for this video we'll say that I've been using GCL memory and quite a few systems for quite a while now and then one of my favorite memory manufacturers because I think they do a really good job with their memory and I've never ever had a stick of g.skill memory die on me but that's all for this video guys if you enjoyed it go ahead and leave me a like don't forget to subscribe and we'll see you all next time
