G.Skill Ripjaws X F3 2133C9Q-32GXH Review

Testing:

SiSoftware Sandra 2011: In this program, I will be running the following benchmarks: Cache and Memory, Memory Bandwidth, and Memory Latency. Higher is better in all tests, except for Memory Latency, where lower is better.

AIDA64 Extreme Edition: is a software utility designed to be used for hardware diagnosis and benchmarking. I will be using the Cache and Memory benchmark to test each module’s read, write, and copy bandwidth, as well as the latency test.

Higher is Better

In the Sandra testing, the G.Skill Ripjaws X modules deliver a higher level of performance than other 2133MHz rated kits in all tests save for the memory latency test where the 9-11-11-31 latencies hamper this kit. In the Aida testing, the 32GB kits is right in the middle of the pack for the most part with the exception being the latency test, much like the Sandra testing.
