Test: Kingston HyperX T1 Black Ed.

Konklusion

Kingstons HyperX T1 Black Edition - 6GB er rettet mest til Gamere og casemoddere der skal bruge et sæt sorte ram. Vi finder samme type køleprofiler som den blå HyperX T1 serie, bare i sort/rød. Ulempen ved den høje profil kan være, at nogen måske kan have problemer med at få plads til deres cpu køler, hvis man har en af de brede typer. Rammene er udstyret med en XMP profil ved 1600MHz, så det var bare at montere dem og vælge XMP profilen i BIOS, så klarede bundkortet resten.
 

Innovation/Teknologi - 4
Den fine integrerede T1 køleprofil gør at HyperX rammene kan køre i timevis uden at overophede og blive ustabile. Og at dømme efter testen så lader det til at være noget udmærket kram.

Design/Layout - 4
De meget høje køleprofiler på over 6cm er flotte at se på, og sidder godt fast. De sørger samtidig for at holde elektronikken kølig og stabil. Dog kan de måske give problemer ved installation hvis du har en stor bred cpu køler der rager ud over ramsoklerne. Designet er rettet mod de brugere der går efter både udseende og ydelse, dvs casemoddere og gamere. De passer eksempelvis meget godt sammen med Asus RE3 Extreme, Gigabytes nye G1-Killer gaming bundkort og flere af EVGA's modeller. 

Ydelse - 3
Jeg er lidt skuffet denne gange, De holder godt nok specs, men når man begunder at overclocke på dem, når man ikke ret langt. Hvis man ikke er til manuel overclocking kan du sagtens få glæde ud af dem, da XMP profilen er ganske udmærket, og det er trods alt minimalt hvor meget ekstra ydelese man få ved at overclock.

Pris - 3
Prisen er omkring 525kr ex. moms for dette 3x2GB kit. Det er en ok pris, men lige præcis i 1600MHz klassen er der rigtig mange alternativer. 

UK summary

Kingston is shipping three HyperX T1 Black 1600MHz DDR3 triple channel kits in 24GB, 12GB and 6GB configurations. HyperX T1 Black is available through Kingston's channel of authorized distributors, resellers, and retailers. We also see that they have used the same typ spreaders as earlier, just different colour. Which is black and red. The only downside of the spreaders is, that if you have a wide Cpu cooler, you might end up not being able to fit it . As the spreader are quit high. These Ram are binned to 1600Mhz, So all ones need to do, is set them to XMP profile in the bios. The new memory kits are designed to meet the performance requirements of the new Intel Core i7-990X Processor Extreme Edition and Intel X58 Express-based motherboards.
 

Innovation/Technology - 4
The fine integrated T1 heat sink makes HyperX ram able to run for hours without overheating or becoming unstable. And judging by the test, it seems that good components have been used.

Design/Layout - 4
The very high cooling profiles, which are 6cm, are beautiful to look at, and firmly engaged.They also keep the electronics cool and stable. However, they might cause problems during installation if you have a great wide CPU cooler which exceeds the ram sockets. The design is  for enthusiasts. They fit quite well colourwise with Asus RE3 Extreme, Gigabyte's new G1 Killer gaming motherboards and/or several of EVGAs models.

Performance - 3 
I must say, I am a bit dissappionted this time. The specs are ok and all, but once I started overclocking, I didnt get far. If you are not into overclocking. you can easily have joy out of them. Just set XMP profil in the bios and they will run the 1600Mhz with reasonable timings. The performance difference when overclocking is also very minimal.

Price - 3
The pricetag is 525DKK ex. VAT. It is a fair price. but the competition in the 1600MHz segment is very close, and there are many alternatives.
