Kingston Fury Renegade Limited Edition Memory Kit

[Jay85]

How did the testing go with these sticks?

I tested with a 12700K and a 13700K.

For shiz and giggles i wanted to see if it would even boot with the 12700K. It didn't... however i was surprised to be able to run these at 7200 CL38 on a Asrock B760i. This is stable with OCCT 1 hour memory test and also game stable. I didn't try and tighten timings as this wasn't the intended end purpose.

13700K ran this kit at 8000mhz at CL36 no problem on the Asrock B760i on the latest Bios, OCCT 1 hour test and game stable. I'm currently tweaking timings so will get back with results shortly. Asrock is sending me another board to test on, a Z790i lightning WIFI so i can run both cpu and memory overclock for ultimate stability.

That’s great. Keep us posted on how it runs on the Lightning WiFi ‘board.

Got round to more testing now that i have the best board for it in ITX format.

I've managed 8200 CL36 with very little effort, just adjusted voltages slightly.

XMP 1 enabled and manually adjust to 8200
VDDU TX and VDD2 at 1.42v
SA 1.2v

Will give 8400 a try tomorrow.

Subbed.

Replied to you, more testing tonight so i'll report back in a day or 2.

Some fiddling this week and a lot of help from the guys over at the Buildzoid discord! So huge thanks to them especially Darkness.

These are my tweaked settings which are OCCT 1 hour stable, i'll do more stability tests but happy with this. The latency on default XMP 1 is around 68-70ns, getting down to 55 is abit of a feat on 1.4v vdd2/vddq tx. The stock heatsink or maybe its the thermal pads on this ram kit isn't that great as im hitting 53c during tests with a fan over the heatsinks. Doesn't help that my waterblock is right up against the ram heatsink too so i guess i should waterblock this ram kit if i want to go higher mhz.

My voltages for this are:

VDDQ TX - 1.4v (Push higher for higher frequency beyond 8000mt/s)
VDD2 - 1.4v (Push higher for higher frequency beyond 8000mt/s)
SA - 1.24v (Push higher or lower for higher frequency beyond 8000mt/s)
Dimm voltage - 1.45v

more tweaking today but more on frequency, since timings were fine.

8200 stable

Bumped Dimm VDD and VDDQ to 1.485v
VDDQ TX to 1.45v
VDD2 to 1.42v

Anything lower and it crashes during OCCT memory test. These settings are solid for 1hour.

That's pretty impressive.

That's pretty impressive.

Further tweaked and got even better results!




This is on an old Windows 11 install so ideally in a clean environment it should score higher.. I suppose my score gives a more realistic score on what you'd expect with other programs running in the background.
