KLEVV, a associate enterprise of SK Hynix, has all the time been quite conservative relating to velocity bins of its reminiscence modules for avid gamers and overclockers, partly as a result of the preferred quantity fashions are nonetheless within the DDR4-3000 to DDR4-3600 vary. This goes to vary generally later this 12 months when the corporate launches its new fashions of Cras X RGB modules.
First launched at Computex 2018, KLEVV’s Cras X RGB household of reminiscence modules for lovers included eight GB and 16 GB DIMMs rated for DDR4-3200 CL16 18-18-38 in addition to DDR4-3466 CL17 19-19-39 at 1.35V operation. At this 12 months’s Computex later this month the corporate will launch sooner variations of its Cras X RGB modules.
The expanded household of Cras X RGB reminiscence sticks will embody DDR4-3600, DDR4-4000, and DDR4-4266 fashions. The DDR4-3600 velocity bin might be suitable each with AMD Ryzen in addition to Intel Core platforms, whereas the DDR4-4000 and DDR4-4200 velocity bins might be aimed primarily at Intel-based PCs.
KLEVV doesn’t say which SK Hynix’s reminiscence chips the brand new modules will use, however signifies that they are going to be geared up with its signature black heatsink and RGB lighting that may be managed utilizing software program from ASUS, ASRock, GIGABYTE, and MSI.
Launching sooner DDR4 modules now makes an awesome sense for Klevv. On the one hand, lovers at present need sooner reminiscence as they improve to six-core or eight-core CPUs. On the opposite hand, sooner modules are bought at increased MSRPs, which is vital for DRAM makers as costs of DDR4 reminiscence dropped considerably within the current quarters and it’s essential for producers to take care of their ASPs and profitability.
