Patriot Viper Steel 4000 MHz CL19 DDR4 review -
Performance: Corona, Frybench, Realbench
Performance: Corona, Frybench, Realbench
Corona 1.3 Benchmark is a nice utility for checking rendering time. Of course the shorter time, the better. Here you can see that overclocking makes the performance slightly higher, so it’s worth trying to increase the frequency of the memory in this case.
Frybench is based on fryrender, which is one of the most demanding engines in its category. Fryrender uses every CPU core available without wasting CPU cycles. The benchmark takes advantage of multi-threaded processors. To keep things easier for comparison, we're displaying the results in seconds and lower is better (as normally it’s given in minutes)
The difference is significant, so it’s good to have memory that’s as fast as possible in this case as well. The last benchmark on this page is Realbench. The test consists of OpenCL, Image Editing, H.264 Video Encoding and Heavy Multitasking, but there’s a total score given, and this is exactly what you’ll find below for comparisons.
Today, we are looking at Patriot Viper Steel RGB 3600 MHz CL20 (yes – 20!) memory in a 32 GB set consisting of two 16 GB modules. I can say that we’ve had our fair share of experience with Patriot RAM. We had an opportunity to test a similarly clocked kit (3600 MHz) from the Viper Steel series (so no RGB there), but the capacity was 2 x 32 GB back then, and the latencies were quite surprisingly better, at 18-22-22-42. Before that, we also reviewed one of the fastest 2 x 8 GB kits in the range, clocked at 4000 MHz with CL19 latency.
Patriot Viper Steel DDR4 3600 MHz (64GB) review
Today, we are looking at Patriot Viper Steel 3600 MHz CL18 memory in a 64 GB set consisting of two 32 GB modules. At the beginning of 2019, we had an opportunity to check a higher-clocked kit from that series (4000 MHz), but the capacity was 2 x 8 GB. Patriot’s Viper Steel Series is offered at speeds ranging from 3000 MHz up to 4400 MHz, with XMP 2.0 support.
