Gigabyte 8GB DDR4 2666MHz Heatsink Desktop Ram Review
As time has passed over the last decade or two, RAM has changed from naked kits to much of the market sporting heat spreaders of various designs. However, as much as we like the look of them, heat spreaders tend to keep the ICs warmer, rather than how marketing spins it as a heat sink of sorts. Then, of course, there was the entry of RGB that is on most of what is available now, and the basic kits seem harder and harder to find as time goes on.
In our minds, as an overclocker at heart, we would much prefer kits with exposed ICs, as we can actively cool the ICs and PCBs better when pushing said kits. Still, we feel the days of old, where you could get excellent ICs on bare looking sticks, may be gone, where our memory leads us to the Samsung low-profile kits that hit the market a few years ago when it was all the rage to buy these kits and clock them to the stars.
While other markers may be part of this lesser purchased market, today, in steps Lexar with what they call "Desktop Memory." Unassuming in its looks, Lexar opts for the stability of their DDR4 in this series over any of that fancy tech that may or may not help the RAM. However, this is one of those instances where we are going in with an open mind and hoping for the best. Lexar sent us nothing special on visual inspection and may make many cringe thinking about the lack of speed and extremely loose timings. Do not judge this book by its cover, as what we are about to show you may turn what you thought about this Lexar Desktop Memory and turn it completely upside down.
