hyperx fury rgb hx432c16fb4ak232 review b

   Just like with the 64GB quad-channel kit I reviewed last year the 32GB dual-channel kit of today’s review performed very well both at default and OC speeds. Yes, it may not be the fastest kit out there (especially now with some 5GHz ones making their debut) but it does represent a good choice for people who either don’t have motherboards that support speeds over 4GHz or who simply don’t care about frequencies. On top of that the low-profile heatspreaders ensure that you will have no issues with most components like CPU coolers (air and liquid). As for the RGB lighting well it may not have worked properly with the Z390 DARK but even the rainbow effect looks nice, especially compared to modules that have none (if you want more detail on the RGB settings of the NGENUITY software you can always check my 64GB quad-channel review here).


   It’s no secret that the lack of availability combined with high demand have resulted in prices skyrocketing recently and this is especially evident in the electronics market. Luckily RAM prices haven’t increased that much but still with a price tag currently set at USD191.99 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and at 185.90Euros inside the EU (Amazon.de) the Fury RGB 32GB DDR4 3200MHz CL16 kit by HyperX is just a tad more expensive than expected. Price aside however (since I don’t expect the current state of the market to last that long) this is a fast, good looking kit with good OC potential and low-profile heatspreaders and that’s why it gets the Golden Award.
