Kingston Fury Beast 16GB DDR4 Desktop RAM Kit - Black

Bought this to add to my existing HyperX Fury 2x8 GB 3200 MHz kit (HX432C16FB3K2/16). Kingston sold off their HyperX division since then, so their RAM was rebranded back, and according to both the official specs and some vendor stock lists I've found, this kit is an exact replacement for my old one. Same timings, same XMP profiles, even the heatsink is completely unchanged apart from the logo. (And almost three times cheaper than what I paid 3 years ago!)

Now, it's not *exactly* the same: my old kit is based on SK Hynix memory, while this one has Nanya (though such variations can exist even between different batches of the same model number). Since mixing kits with dies from different memory manufacturers can be potentially problematic, I was somewhat apprehensive at first, but after a week of testing and different workloads, everything is completely stable at 3200 MHz and 1.35V. I didn't even have to change anything in the BIOS, the kit just worked out of the box. (Ryzen 5 3600, MSI B450 Tomahawk Max with BIOS 7C02v37/AGESA 1.0.0.6 - old kit is in slots 2 and 4, new kit is in 1 and 3)

Was not after anything fancy with RGB. Great RAM for a great price. Had the same RAM in DDR3 back when it was Hyper Fury. Great upgrade from DDR3 to DDR4 Was not after anything fancy with RGB.

Thank you PB Tech for recommending Kingston FURY Beast ram for my PC. The ram is reliable and fast running both Win11 and Ubuntu. Thank you PB Tech for recommending Kingston FURY Beast ram for my PC. The ram is reliable and fast running both Win11 and Ubuntu.

You get more ram and speed. You get more ram and speed.

I managed to pair it with another kit I bought several months ago, XMP profile applied over all of them in dual-channel mode and Lightroom Classic no longer crashes / errors out when merging panoramas and HDR images. Definitely the best bang for the buck DDR4.

Good speed and XMP function for gaming. Will consider buying another 16g for my pc. Good speed and XMP function for gaming. Will consider buying another 16g for my pc.
