TeamGroup T-Force Dark (4 X 8GB) Memory DDR4 3000MHz Review

2016-12-04
so I recently took a look at a paces Panther memory and that was pretty solid though being in Japan I have had some experience with a brand called teen before when they asked me to take a look at their 3,000 megahertz 16 18 18 36 times t force dark memory modules I said sure I mean who in their right mind could pass up free batarangs welcome back to tech city this is brian coming to you guys today with a review of team groups 32 gigabyte 4 by 8 gigabyte ddr4 memory kit which features only one XMP profile and just like the a piece of stuff it was one thing that I'd like to see companies do it would be to put two or more profiles as this stuff on my 5820k couldn't even reach the XMP profiles though when I coupled it with my 6800 K CPU it was a very good experience getting a solid 32 hundred megahertz stable after overclocking when I found the maximum stable bandwidth overclock though as viewers pointed out with the Panther memory review it's not always about the maximum speeds and I completely agree having not overclocked memory for quite a while I thought it was time I would polish up my skills and put this memory to the test and after dropping the timings and the speeds I found that the team dark memory hit a sweet spot at 26 hundred megahertz with timings of 1314 1431 with a command rate of 1 which of ddr4 memory can hit this then it generally means that they have used more than the minimum standard of layers of PCB when creating their modules that is it is better than your run-of-the-mill stuff this particular blend of stick also features a gram black blended heatsink there kind of looks like somebody's favorite weapon clearly Bruce Wayne's memory of choice though on a serious note this stuff ran really well at the rated X and P speeds and also the overclocked ran really well too and I even decided to stress that's the memory for over an hour to ensure the temps weren't creeping up and in the 28 degree environment the modules were getting barely warm as for overclocking like a boot at three point three and even four point four gigahertz so the two modules started dropping out and on my lower overclock with tighter timings at 12 13 30 and 28 it started dropping out and only one memory module remained and this was most likely due to the CPU memory controller not being able to handle the additional clock speeds at the higher clocks though the lower clocks it was most likely to the memory itself also this memory although produced by team actually features DDR banks from micron but with all that aside the 10 group memory is solid the build quality is good and there really isn't a lot else to this stuff overall a solid choice and ultimately what this means is that there is now another manufacturer that is bringing competition to the market and in in helping bring down prices and offer better value to us tech enthusiasts now what about pricing and availability well I could actually only find this stuff currently for sale on Newegg where it's 16 gigabytes for $75 that's to buy a gigabyte sticks though that was for the red and black stuff the gray stuff that I have here surprisingly is an extra $25 so I don't exactly know what's going on there but for $75 for 16 gigabytes of this stuff it is pretty damn good value for money so definitely keep your eye out for it and if the price is right - be sure to snatch some up for your x99 multitasking King ding-a-ling Randall before the jam bling Kronk on the katana hustled with the muscle productivity and gaming PC or your sky leg build or your upcoming Zen / something like build and also don't forget to manually set your system agent voltage in even if you are just overclocking on the XMP profiles and I'll catch you guys in another tech video very soon and also don't forget hit that like button and let me know in the comments section below what's your most aggressive overclock you have ever done in your life I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments and opinions as always now catch you in another tech video very soon peace out for now bye
