Unlike the two other game related benchmarks, this benchmark does not use load time as its metric. Instead it uses go old fashioned frames per second. This is because unlike the majority of games available today, Grand Theft Auto V (labeled ‘GTA V’ in the chart) actually is somewhat bandwidth limited. This makes it a very good game for showing how much impact the various RAM speed’s have on overall performance.
For Grand Theft Auto V (labelled ‘GTA V’ in the chart) we have opted to use the games built in benchmark with max settings at 1080P resolution.
Given the asking price of this kit we can honestly say that for serious and hardcore gamers there really is no excuse to not opt for 32GB kits these days. Of those options the Kingston HyperX Fury DDR4-2666 is an excellent choice. Great stock speeds, great capacity, great ease of use, and excellent overclocking abilities… this kit really does have a lot going for it.
