2133mhz Ram Test Results

[imacken]

12 points on Single core is significant in your eyes?

.25% Higher to be exact is not a SIGNIFICANT HIGHER score...

He updated his results and changed the graphic. The original ones were about 10% lower, which was significant.

My apologies

10% is def something to make note of.

Very confusing1 Don't know why he didn't just post his new results in a separate post.

You are right, sorry about that!

Is there any long term downside to running 2133 MHz RAM in a machine with an 1867 MHz RAM spec? Kingston has a disclaimer at the bottom of their HyperX spec sheet about exceeding manufacturer specs? Probably CYA, but in a ~$3,000 iMac...

Granted it's only been a few months but my iMac is running great with no issues. It has 32GB of 2133MHz RAM.

What kind of work do you do on your computer? Anything that really stresses your memory?

A bit of video work... converting one format to another, etc.

[andylaiphoto]

Just installed and it's being recognized as expected.

 

[Noltimm]

I hope that my iMac come soon.

My ram is already waiting.

 

[andylaiphoto]

I've been editing in Lightroom and editing 4K footage in FCPX. Rig is running great.

For me Kingston 32Gb RAM also works perfectly in my new iMac 27 5K late 2015...

Quick question folks, I bought an iMac with 2x8gm RAM. Looking to upgrade to 32gb 2133mhz. Can I just buy another set of 16 (2x8gb) in the 2133mhz configuration and mix it with the stock 16 RAM?

 

[imacken]

Yes, but all RAM will go down to the speed of the slowest modules, so spending the extra on 2133MHz would be wasted.

Got it, thank you. Are most people buying these from Amazon/Newegg or is there another site you guys recommend that's cheaper?

 

[briloronmacrumo]

Amazon/Newegg are generally fine. You call also use PCPartsPicker to find the lowest price on the part you want. Here is a link to their DIMM memory page

Interesting topic I ordered a kit of Kingston HyperX 16GB - £64 I'll let you know how it works on my cMBP mid 2012.

Where did you order from for £64? Thanks

Hi logicpro7, I got them from Amazon uk refurbish category

Run through a test with Geekbench 32bits and it looks nice +15% and 25% in memory performance.

Great thanks! Just ordered.

 

[IngerMan]

Comparing My i5 model to another identical using the 2133 it looks like about 1.5% increase over my 1867 Ram on GeekBench 3.0 Score.

Bumping this thread!

Any feedback on you who've had these 2133MHz sticks for a while now - issues? Or working fine?
Just ordered my iMac and the Crucial 1867MHz CL13's are out of stock.
So interested in the 2133MHz ones!
