Taipei Game Show 2016, a major event for pros in the competitive gaming scene around the world, will soon be opening. Running from Jan 29 through Feb 2, the theme for this year's show is "Game Connect". Never a company to miss such an opportunity, KINGMAX will be unveiling our latest ZEUS DDR4 Gaming RAM with heatsink - the product will ensure that your PC gaming platform runs stable under extreme gaming conditions.

As a popular brand name for competitive gaming PC products among overclocking gamers, KINGMAX will be launching our brand new ZEUS DDR 4 Gaming RAM with heatsink that delivers ultra-speed and unparalleled performance right around the Chinese New Year. Featuring an impressive array of features including overclocking, low CAS latency and low voltage to ensure stable operation, the ZEUS DDR 4 Gaming RAM also comes in a variety of value selections, ranging from 2800MHz, 3000MHz and up to 3200MHz with capacities ranging from 4GB, 8GB and 16GB. With support for dual channel operation, users will essentially be getting 32GB of memory. For those looking to set up a new system for the New Year, a good combination to consider would be the Intel Z170 system chipset, Intel's latest Skylake processor and with Intel's XMP 2.0 overclocking technology, ZEUS DDR4's aluminum alloy cast heatsink will deliver even more significant cooling performance. The product is an ideal choice as a vital upgrade option for gamers wishing to challenge the limit of PC performance.



In addition, KINGMAX has taken a new approach that is noticeably different from the creative product exterior design styles in the past by opting for chic design with metallic finish and offering a series of quality heatsinks in Ruby Red, Turquoise Blue and Stylish Gold for users (who are fans of franchises such as Miku, Dynasty Warriors or League of Legends) with different preferences to scratch their styling itch.

I'm hearing quite a lot of horror stories about DDR4 RAM, especially the fastest one at 3000MHz and beyond not working, not even with XMP profiles. Which is a bit worrying. And annoying. You spend what, 300+ € on RAM that doesn't even work in the end...

That's why I went with G.Skill no issues with my 3000Mhz and that's with 2x16GB

Which is why I'm waiting for Broadwell-E (Q2 2016). Z170 seems to handle fast DDR4 better than X99, but both platforms have issues. It's sad that Intel's expensive HEDT hardware has more problems than mainstream consumer kit. I for one would be extremely pissed if after spending $2000 - $5000 on the best platform available, the system wouldn't boot with any RAM over 2666. Or if using XMP caused crashes and blue screens. Perhaps their 3rd try will finally get it right...

Either there's some untrue information is being spread or perhaps the replies above are woefully misguided.
There's no issue with DDR4 at all.
For X99, Haswell-E specifically. Multipliers above 2666 do not work, never have and never will as per INTEL spec.
However, you can run 3,000, 3200, 3333MHz and some boards like the X99 SOC-Champion 3,400MHz. All that is needed is that the system uses the 125Bclk divider instead of 100. The X.M.P can stipulate this very thing as well, as with the GeIL Super Luce 3400MHz kit for example. By doing so, the memory multiplier stays below 26.6. This has nothing to do with DDR4 at all but Haswell-E CPUs specifically.

On Z170, you can operate memory at just about all available dividers within reason. That is, you can run 3,733MHz, 3,600MHz, 3433MHz, 3200MHz, 3000MHz etc. with no problems and yes X.M.P does work.

There's something called a QVL list for memory and motherboards. Users need only buy memory that is on the QVL list and your problems go away.

It is untrue that there is a "problem" with DDR4.

@ShockG you are correct. I should have worded it differently, I went with G.Skill because they are such a well know company that they are usually a given to be supported.
As I've seen bad reviews from people that their ram wasn't doing proper frequency.

I did check before and technically my kit is not on my QVL, but one kit with slightly different frequency was.

Dat speed race. The mini-ITX motherboard I have set my eyes on for a Skylake build only supports 2133MHZ DDR4 , so I will just be looking for the tightest timings there. No speed race for this fella :) In my case this is Kingston Hyper X Fury with CL 14, CAS latency . Unless something changes of course.
