ADATA Launches XPG SPECTRIX D60G DDR4 Memory Module

[EarthDog]

Price is completely unrelated to the large heatsink/RGB implementation supposedly causing these things to 'burn'. I know you mentioned price, but I responded to multiple people about these overheating/burning and nothing else.

That said, yeah, you will likely need water/aio for these, no doubt. Some prefer form over function and pay for the prettier sticks. There's a market out there.

These sticks will not burn, they are not all plastic either.

You and humor aren't best friends are you ? We are not idiots dude we know those sticks won't burn it's just a way to say they will get pretty hot . Gskill Flare X goes up to 60 degrees at 1.35V on an open test bench so you can be sure that these D60G will get significantly hotter considering the minimal metalic surface area and that's at 1.35V . Now go up to 1.5V wich is the maximum 24/7 recommended voltage and you will start sweating more than you think !

They will be fine when using 1.35V and XMP as well.

Oh really ? I was thinking for a moment they would explode into a supernova and create a black hole on my desk so i could take some pictures of it ........ thank you Mr.Obvious !

I never took you literally (like burn/catch fire, lol - that is why I used a single quote around "burn" every time I used the word... using the term inside loosely if you will).

I just wanted to make sure the sentiment that they will run just fine, especially at XMP speeds (likey more) was clear as others after you shared the same concern with exaggerated descriptors.

I'd still bet they would run fine at 1.5V (for the 10 people that visit TPU and would do that, and the thousands who don't). I also imagine those will run purpose made sticks and not these frosted RGB LED light show. The may run warmer, I can hang with that... but 'burning' and 'overheating' is being dramatic (signed, Sheldon Cooper).

Unsure, but some test proved that cooled DIMMs work better than not cooled ones..

This kinda looks nice, but its also really stupid. Pretty much as whole RGB thing.

gawdy design, and more leds for 12yr olds. no thank you

 

[CheapMeat]

Very minor detail but I like how there is no logo on the top center. Some of the RGB DIMMs out there have the logo / brand right in the middle and it's really annoying aesthetically, in my opinion. I like that the name is on the end of the stick.

I run my G.skill Trident Z B-Die @ 4200 12-11-11 2.0V for benching and they only get slightly warm without a fan. It's not uncommon to see people running similar settings with bare dimm's.
Memory stopped needing heatsink's once low voltage (1.65-1.5V) DDR3 came out.

Well hard to believe considering as i said Flare X at 1.35V goes up to 60 degrees when stressed , maybe your benching isn't putting that much load on memory ? Also depends on how you define '' slightly worm '' , touching something isn't exactly what i would call an accurate measurement .

oh get off it already.

ICs can handle more than you think. Some vrms are 125C, in fact. Not sure what memory is rated for, but this concept of worrying about it for stock speeds (yes, xmp) needs to go.

Edit: depends on the ic, but I've seen 81C+.

Do as i say not as i do

Yes 81C for most manufacturers so as you can see you are aldredy getting close with some sticks at 1.35V , keep in mind 81c is the limit where you are strarting to face degradation on the long and possibly even short term but even at 60C you start loosing stability compared to as if you where at 40C ( overclocking scales with temps ram is not an exception ) ...... again it all depends what you do with you ram ...... for xmp it should be fine indeed but for OCing ( i mean past XMP since XMP is already an OC ) i'm MUCH more sceptical !

 

[EarthDog]

XMP isnt an overclock (for the sticks...it is for the IMC). The sticks are rated to run that way out of the box. Jedec specs are for platform compatibility.

Overclocking too. It's going to take more than the weekend warriors here run these out of temp spec. Think of the audience you are speaking to. Now if this was at hwbot or something... sure. But the people here are 24/7 overclockers and these sticks will be fine at jedec...at xmp...or even some overclocking... for their useful life.

 

[Prima.Vera]

This is all good and all, but what are the specs?? Are those CAS20 or something?

 

[vega22]

Not really an RGB fan but they look nice.

If I was going to do a unicorn sick build I think I'd opt for some cheap version of these.
