Crucial Ballistix Tactical LP DDR3 1600MHz 16GB Memory Kit Review
Chris Hadley / 12 years ago
Test system:
- Asus Maximus V Formula
- Intel Core i7 3770k
- AMD Radeon HD 7970
- Antec Kuhler 920
- Corsahir HX1050W
- Kingston HyperX 240GB SSD
- Lian Li T60
- Dell Ultrasharp U3011
Jumping straight into the BIOS to ensure everything is working as it should, we find that the kit offers up two XMP profiles. Both of these offer up a speed of 1600MHz and 8-8-8-24-2T timings, but one sets the DRAM voltage to 1.35v and the other to 1.5v. For the purpose of our testing and to allow for a potentially higher overclock later on, we will chose the second profile setting the memory’s voltage to 1.5v.
