The new high-end Dark Pro Series memory kits in the special "8Pack Edition" have been developed and tweaked with the help of overclocking icon Ian "8Pack" Parry and the renowned graphics card expert Andrew "Gibbo" Gibson. The dual- and quad-channel kits have been developed in cooperation with Team Group, Caseking and Overclockers UK in accordance with strict quality, performance and compatibility criteria.
Samsung B-dies are used exclusively by the 8Pack Team due to their superb compatibility and overclocking potential, especially when paired with the latest Intel Kaby Lake (Z170/Z270) and AMD Ryzen platforms (B350/X370). The aggressive latencies out of the box of CAS 14-14-14-31 as well as their high overclocking potential mean that these kits have been designed from the ground up for enthusiast-level gaming and overclocking. Attainable frequencies extend to over 4000 MHz on the X299 platform and up to 3600 MHz on Ryzen systems with moderate latencies. But even in regards to latency tuning the Dark Pro "8Pack Edition" RAM kits are very flexible. This is what allows hassle-free CAS10 timings with lower memory clock frequencies.
The modules are equipped with massive black anodised aluminium heatspreaders in a sandwich-style design. This, in conjunction with the titanium-coloured centre and the notches, allows for a sleek and premium aesthetic design. The total height of the range is approximately 45,6 mm and should be kept in mind when choosing a CPU cooler. The heat dissipation capacity of the Dark Pro series is also especially high, meaning that they have plenty of cooling capacity spare during overclocking. Furthermore the PCB cover of the heatspreader can be removed, which reduces the total height to just 37 mm and markedly increases compatibility with larger CPU coolers.
Technical Details:
Have a 2nd set of these on order to sit on a Crosshair VIII providing service to a 5950X. Currently running at 3733 C15 /1.4V. With my previous Crosshair VII & 3900X combo they seemed happiest at 3433 C14 /1.4 - They do DOCP 3200/14 no problem and the Ryzen's love them. Recommended.
Fantastic kit, overclocked to 4000mhz easily at 18 18 18 36 timings on 1.35v, did 4133mhz too but saw no difference in benchmarks so didn't push further even though they probably could have. Considering these are 3200mhz stock thats an absolutely nuts OC and testament to the quality of the modules used. Fantastic bit of kit and well worth the price premium over other 16GB sets
Running this at 3600mhz at 15-15-15-32 and second level timings also stretched considerably and the ram doesn't even blink. Doesn't run hot either. Getting massive increase in benchmarks throughput and 39ns
