GeIL EVO ONE Hexa-channel 12GB DDR3 Kit Review

👤by David Mitchelson Comments 📅08-04-10
Conclusion

Whilst GeIL may not be the most popular brand out there for RAM, from this review they have shown that they should be up there with the giants of memory. Right from the packaging to the overclocking, this kit has a lot going for it. At the rated speeds, the EVO ONE kit gives rewarding performance and even more so with a 12% overclock that I achieved.

Of course this kit is only going to be beneficial to those on a 64-bit platform, utilizing such a large volume of RAM and bandwidth. They are ideal for users who multi-task regularly, indulge in habitual graphic and rendering work and need that extra boost for gaming. The last thing you want when completing any of these tasks is for the system to hang, or even worse… crash!



I was unable to find a price for this kit, but based on a GeIL EVO ONE 6GB kit that cost around the £240 mark, the 12GB kit won\'t be too far away.

If you want a kit that is stable, has the capacity to see you through demanding operations and have the cash then the EVO ONE 12GB DDR3 kit is a great choice. Hexa-channel kits are new to the market, and will I am sure prove ever popular as time passes by. Having all six modules allocated in two sets of triple channel maximizes bandwidth and that can only be a good thing. Based on the performance, stability and other great qualities, the EVO ONE hexa-channel kit recieves the Vortez Silver award.

Pros
+ Massive bandwidth
+ Stable
+ Good overclocker

Cons
- Height on heatsinks could be problematic
- Big price



We would like to thank GeIL for providing this sample. You can discuss this review on our forums
