Best products from Kingston are branded as Hyper X products and today we will examine one of the latest products from Hyper X series i.e Kingston Hyper X Beast Modules with a total of 16GB capacity running at 2400Mhz @CL11.
The Kingston Hxper X Beast memory features a new heatspreader which Kingston claims will “maximize thermal dissipation for increased reliability.†The kit contains two modules of 8gb each rated @2400mhz and is fastest in its series. The kit work on two Intel xmp profiles:-
• Profile 1: 2400MHz, 11-14-14-33, 1.65V
• Profile 2: 2133MHz, 11-13-13-30, 1.6V
Specifications & Features
• Capacity: 16GB (2x8GB)
• Speed: 2400MHz
• Operating Temperature 0°C to 85°C
• Storage Temperature -55°C to 100°C
• Dimensions 125.8mm x 47.9mm
• Double Data Rate: DDR3
• CAS Latency: 11-14-14-33, 11-13-13-30
• 1.55V-1.65V operating voltages enable stable Overclocking
• Compatible with Intel XMP auto-Overclocking function
• Designed to work with P55, H67, P67, Z68, H61 (AG), X79 and Z77 Intel chipsets; as well as A75, A87, – A88, A89, A78 and E35 (Fusion) AMD chipsets
• Carefully selected premium chips for maximum performance and overclockability
• Dynamic black design and sharp edge accents
• 100-percent factory tested
• Lifetime Warranty

TEST SETUP
The memory Module was tested with the AMD A10 6800k APU, below is the mentioned Setup used for testing this module .
• AMD A10 6800K
• ASUS F2A85-V PRO
• KINGSTON HYPER X BEAST 16GB 2400MHZ
• CORSAIR H60
• CORSAIR FORCE 3 60GB SSD
• SEASONIC PLATINUM 1000W

For comparison i used Corsair Dominator platinum memory, memory modules are tested with different frequencies mentioned below:-
Kingston Hyper X beast 2133Mhz @ 11-13-13-30
Kingston Hyper X beast 2400Mhz @ 11-13-13-32
Kingston Hyper X beast 2500Mhz @ 11-14-14-32
Kingston Hyper X beast 2600Mhz @ 13-15-15-36
Corsair Dominator Platinum 2133Mhz @ 9-10-11-30
Corsair Dominator Platinum 2400Mhz @ 10-13-12-32

These kits are having a great room of Overclocking headroom with our testing we are able to push it to 2600MHz with ease.
However, there are a few things I want to mention about this particular set of memory that it`s heatsink is a bit large which may interfere with some aftermarket coolers as I am facing the same with my Cooler Master TPC 812.
A Special Thank to Kingston for providing the Review Sample.
