System Performance Results

There are five sets of numbers here. One set is from a re-bench of G.Skill's previously reviewed 3000 MHz 16 GB kit I have been using primarily to test the X99 platform, and the second set is from the Crucial sticks we are looking at today. The third set of numbers is from yet another kit that matches Crucial's kit in timings and speed, all while utilizing 4 GB sticks with ICs on just one side of the PCB. Those numbers are there to investigate whether an increase in density results in a performance boost. All together, we have a fairly wide spread of common DDR4 speeds now, so you can take a look at the numbers and decide for yourself whether buying memory over 2133 MHz is worth it or not.
