Final Thoughts
Pricing (accurate at the time of writing)
The Kingston HyperX Fury 2666MHz 32GB memory kit can be found at Newegg in the US for $354.99. UK resellers were hard to find, currently only Dabs sell the kit at £271.22. This price includes Kingston’s lifetime warranty cover.
Summary
So today I’ve had the pleasure of dealing with the Kingston HyperX Fury DDR4 2666MHz memory kit. When I open the packaging, I just knew that this was a kit designed for performance. The overall feel was very solid, possibly one of the heaviest single DDR4 modules I’ve held apart from the huge HyperX Predator memory kits. The modules didn’t stutter once under testing at both stock and overclocked levels and gave some pretty amazing results.
The performance was outstanding, in the dedicated memory tests, it was top of the list at both stock and overclocked speeds; that just goes to show that speed isn’t everything when you compare the Corsair 2800MHz kit to this. The overclocking headroom I got out of this kit was very good, an extra ‘free’ 334MHz really brought the kit to life
This isn’t a Kingston issue, more of an all round DDR4 issue, but the price on these memory kits is still very high. I think with the next iteration of CPU’s we should start seeing the phasing out of DDR3 and lower DDR4 prices as a result.
Pros
- Low profile design
- Lifetime warranty
- Excellent overclocking performance
Cons
- DDR4 pricing is still expensive
“With rock solid ‘out of the box’ performance, the Kingston Fury DDR4 range is one to consider for your high-end build.”
Thank you Kingston for providing this sample.
