If you follow my posts on the forums, you'll find that I consider myself one of Corsair's biggest fans, but those feelings were thrown completely out of whack when I received this kit from G.Skill. The G.Skill F3-2666C11Q-16GTXD kit managed to completely amaze me with its quality and clocking ability, and I fell in love after checking its price. You cannot find a 4x 4GB 2666 MHz kit for less right now unless it's been put on sale. This kit manages to overcome any performance deficiencies with flexibility and great overhead. At stock, I managed to beat out my trusty Corsair Dominator Platinum kit with a little bit of tweaking. Overclocked, the G.Skill F3-2666C11Q-16GTXD kit managed to go just as high without a boost in voltage. That is just outright fantastic.
Although many question the usefulness of high-performance RAM, it is something I will never second guess. When it comes to real overclocking, memory can be a big factor in getting the most performance out of your system, even if those gains are sometimes pretty meager, especially when considering price/performance.
As I have posted in the forums recently, it's like running an F1 car on pump gas - sure, it will still be quick, but you are definitely not making the most of what you have. The G.Skill F3-2666C11Q-16GTXD kit allowed me to get the most and then some out of my system.
If you are looking for a high-end kit to complete your new build, look no further. The G.Skill F3-2666C11Q-16GTXD kit has what you need and will NOT disappoint. It is fairly pricey, but so is any other 16 GB 2666 MHz kit. Got a kit and need some help setting it up? Hit me up on the forums!
