The increasingly widespread application of DDR4 on mainstream platforms has helped to drive the memory technology's production rates upwards with pricing travelling in the opposite direction. A 32GB quad-channel kit of no-nonsense DDR4 memory can now be c...
Low cost, Simplicity – no interfering heatspreaders, Some overclocking potential...
Basic appearance may dissuade some.
When taking the competitive price point into account, there's little to complain about with Crucial's CT4K8G4DFD8213 2133MHz DDR4 memory. No, the kit won't win any performance awards, and it certainly won't be ranked highest for aesthetics. But when it co...

While DDR4 may be slightly new, as well as the system we put together to continue on with testing at TweakTown, with some decent clocking skills, it did not take long to get used to the kit, and be able to really put some of this DDR4 through its paces. To get a grasp on just how DDR4 worked, we went to Crucial and asked them for a baseline kit of 2133MHz memory so that we can start at the low-end of memory speeds and work our way up. Read more at...
This kit may not be pretty, but the capacity, its overclocking ability, and the bottom of the barrel pricing are all great reasons why this 2133MHz speed 16GB kit may be just what you are looking for...

Although less known nowadays, generic-looking Crucial modules ruled the enthusiast memory market from the late 1990s until the early 2000s. These innocuous green memory sticks not only often overclocked better than anything else on the market, but they we...
Since this Crucial CT4K8G4DFD8213 model is the cheapest 32GB DDR4 memory kit on the market right now we didn't necessarily have the highest of expectations, especially considering the low stock DDR4-2133 clock speed which is the starting point for DDR4 ac...

Tom's Hardware considers memory selection an important part of any build. However, many enthusiasts will probably simplify their choice by asking “Which of my favorite brands has the lowest price on a 32GB, quad-channel kit?” On the other hand, a lot of T...

We have been running Intel Haswell-EP based systems in the lab for a while now in the lab. With the new processors came many extra cores that we did not have with the Ivy-Bridge-EP systems. We have gone from a max of 12 core CPU's to now 18 cores. We foun...
With the growing number of cores in Haswell-EP based systems, we find systems will need larger amounts of RAM to feed these memory hungry processors. Initially we started out running the Crucial 8GB DDR4 memory sticks and soon found ourselves running out...

DDR4 memory is all about increasing bandwidth through higher speeds while concurrently reducing energy consumption by dropping standard voltage from 1.5V to 1.2V. Such plays work well in the server market, so it's no surprise to see DDR4 memory validated...

The high cost of the Intel X99 platform has swayed many enthusiasts away from investing in the best system backbone currently available. Pricing is coming down for both motherboards and DDR4 memory, where you can now purchase a 16GB (4x4GB) kit for not...

For a long time, memory was one of the most boring components of a PC: you just had to have as much of it as possible; the specific type and speed were of little importance. Now those strips of RAM are suddenly one of the most talked-about parts. It's tim...
16GB is the amount of memory we would recommend for most PCs right now. For office and surfing work, gaming and many other purposes, you'll get more than enough out of that for now. For example, it would be a good idea for video staff to go for even more...

DDR4 is here and is the next step up from DDR3 RAM, however it will probably take some extra time for DDR4 to be as popular as DDR3, and is currently only a necessary evil for all of us that have decided to move to an X99 based system. Hopefully those tha...
DDR4 is here with a lot more performance than I originally expected, with this set of RAM able to give very good results, both on the default settings and also when it was overclocked up to 2666MHz. This set is one of the best solutions for those that wan...

The Crucial traded blows with our G.Skill test kit of the same speed, throughout our benchmarks. Overclocking was good, though the latency still was rather high. The 317MHz added to the memory clock strengthened its performance further. They do seem to pr...
