For players, especially those who are older like me, the Kingston brand is one with memory. It is one of the first memory preferences for players without any disruption for the longest time. It’s safe to say that the HyperX series has become a myth. But when Kingston opened up this brand to environmental products and made it huge, the name HyperX went beyond the memory business and was eventually sold to another group. Kingston is now filling the gap from HyperX with a whole new line of products. The Fury brand, which was previously a sub-brand, is kingston’s new legend candidate, while Renegade represents his high-end family. Under the Kingston Fury brand, we’ll also see the more affordable Beast and mobile Impact ranges.
Of course, such a big brand change brings risks. Kingston should also be aware of these risks, which renegade leaves behind all the memory they have produced so far in quality. The night black aluminum cooler on the black PCB-designed memory, the fishback patterned metal part on it and the new Fury logo engraved on it, the finest detail, the production quality of each edge is amazing. When you pick it up, you don’t have to believe there’s memory, it’s more like the processing of an expensive katana handle. I’ll tell you what, I was heartbroken when I put such fine craftsmanship on the motherboard and condemned it to invisibility forever.
But this eye-catching design isn’t Renegade’s only trick. Memory you can get at speeds from 2666MHz to 5333Mhz comes with 13 to 20 CAS Latency. It has 8GB, 16Gb and 32GB modules that you can get with the dual kit option. So you can find it in any size, speed and configuration you want.
At what speed should you get memory
The model I tested was a dual 32GB kit with a speed of 3600Mhz and a CL16-20-20 latency. With today’s motherboards, it is now possible to achieve memory speeds exceeding 5000Mhz, but if you ask me, the speed ideal for gamers is 3600Mhz and more, which is only useful for a certain player profile. It’s worth explaining. You know, a system always operates at the speed of its slowest part. This is a very flat logic, especially on processor and video cards. For example, you don’t go and install a GTX 1050 on the Ryzen 7 processor. But it’s not the speed of the other parts that create the bottleneck for the memory, it’s what game it runs. For example, if you’re playing Cyberpunk on the most super system, more than 2400MHz won’t benefit you, while the 4800Mhz memory you plug into a very cheap system can blow you away. What determines the memory speed requirement for gamers is exactly how much frame rate you get per second. Because memory information for each frame needs to flow quickly. That’s why you need high-speed memory in the game where you play 600 FPS, not in the game you’re playing 60 FPS, no matter what your processor and video card.
If you’re playing more AAA games and balancing graphics quality with FPS, 3600Mhz will do you good. If you’re playing Counter with zero graphics settings in the morning and evening, you probably don’t read Gamegezer.
Least delayed memory
But if you’re going to get the best, I recommend kingston fury renegade’s 5333Mhz. Because in models after 3600Mhz, CAS Latency does not change much, it goes from 19 to 20…. You know, CL can be very effective in gaming performance, and how much actual data latency the CL generates is directly proportional to the speed of memory. This means that the actual latency of the module with a delay of 4000Mhz is 19/4000=0.00475, while for the 5333Mhz model it is 20/5333=0.00375. You see, even if the speed increase doesn’t benefit you, you’re lowering the Cas Latency on the higher model.
This product has both RGB and simple versions. I’ve studied the non-RGB, but from what I’ve seen from his pictures, the RGB looks good, too. But if you prefer RGB, there’s no faster than 4600Mhz.
In short, Kingston has no intention of giving up the memory kingdom after HyperX, Renegade said. It’s a great product in terms of both production quality and performance.
