I wonder if everyone will feel the same way?The development of the times has provided too much convenience for the majority of DIY enthusiasts. For example, in the past, the computer assembly machine would be more inclined to "one-piece molding, iron plate", and when you want to replace it, you need to replace the entire computer. Now it's different, brands will provide some highly personalized high-performance accessories, to facilitate users to build their own machines, not to mention the installation of the whole machine, at least for the desktop to change the graphics card, solid-state, memory is a breeze. And this kind of DIY is not limited to the upgrade of physical configuration, but can use the user's own smart brain to squeeze more performance of computer components, including overclocking of graphics cards, motherboards and memory.
Why do I feel this way?It's because at first I was in contact with overclocking with the mentality of trying it out, but then I felt that it was quite simple to practice, so I was a little hooked. And Intel and AMD's most**CPU all support DDR5 memory, and the current storage** is not bad, so there is no psychological burden to play. No, it's bringing memory sharing to you again?In this article, we will introduce the CAS V RGB DDR5 memory from KLEVV.
This memory is a 16GB 2 set, including five speed versions with 8000MT S, and the new 8200MT S and 8400MT S two versions will be launched in January, and the new Brilliant White color will be added. Users can choose a large amount of space according to their needs and budget, and all of them support overclocking. Without further ado, let's get into the text and see what the performance potential of this KLEVV CRAS v RGB DDR5 6400MT S memory I chose.
From the packaging of KLEVV cras v RGB DDR5 memory, it can actually be seen that its RGB temperament, the packaging design style will be more bright, including the product name, product renderings, warranty and support for Intel X***0 automatic overclocking small corner mark (in fact, AMD EXPO overclocking is also supported, but the overclocking potential based on the Intel platform is greater, and it is estimated that AMD may not be too lazy to mention it here). I think the disposable stickers across the packaging are very user-friendly, so you don't have to worry about buying memory stickers for secondary sales.
Directly opened:
KLEVV CROS V RGB DDR5 memory is used with a heat dissipation vest, compared to the bare strip, in addition to the cool RGB effect that can be achieved after installation, in fact, the appearance of the uninstalled state is more outstanding. For example, the edges and corners of the heat dissipation vest have a sharp cutting line texture, which is more in line with the hardcore temperament of computer hardware.
The heatsink of the CRAS V RGB DDR5 memory features a unique tone-on-tone color design with subtle side light transmission (more on that below). At the same time, because it is equipped with high-quality aluminum alloy heat sink, the heat dissipation effect will be more guaranteed.
The RGB effect of the memory module must have a good motherboard and other hardware compatibility to have a better and more complete experience. The KLEVV CROS V RGB DDR5 memory is compatible with the lighting control software of major motherboards such as ASUS, GIGABYTE, MSI, and ASRock, as well as with "light pollution sources" such as coolers, motherboards, keyboards and mice, graphics cards, and fans.
In addition to the aesthetics brought by the design lines and RGB effect, the overall design of the KLEVV CAS V RGB DDR5 memory is simple and recognizable.
KLEVV cras v RGB DDR5 memory is equipped with a cooling vest, and a single memory module weighs 75g, which is quite weighty in the hand. The height and thickness are 44mm and 8mm respectively, and the memory installation space is sufficient without affecting the installation of the heatsink.
The configuration I have at hand is 6400mt s specification, timing 32-38-38-78, voltage 135v。It uses a 10-layer black PCB board and an integrated temperature sensor, which can improve the power supply stability and efficiency of the memory through the PMIC power management chip. At the same time, it also has the basic quality of DDR5 memory modules - supports On-Die ECC error correction technology, which can maintain the high performance and reliability of the product over a long period of time.
DIY sounds like a need for a lot of novicesActually, that's not the case. Take memory as an example, silent frequency represents the most basic and stable memory state, but its performance is still relatively small, so from another point of view, this is also a waste of memory performance, and overclocking is to solve this situation.
On the one hand, experienced users can manually overclock based on personal experience and the same memory overclocking tutorials on the Internet to "squeeze" the maximum performance of memoryOn the other hand, if the user's hands-on ability is relatively average, it can be automatically overclocked through the timing and voltage preset by the platform, which is the so-called "one-click" overclocking. In this way, can everyone realize that DIY is actually not that difficult, and who can say that one-click overclocking is not overclocking?
KLEVV CROS V RGB DDR5 memory supports Intel X***0 and AMD Expo memory overclocking technology, after turning on the XMP Expo function in the BIOS, you can save the complicated parameter adjustment steps and achieve one-click overclocking.
To test the memory, you need to look at the configuration of the test platform, and the highest frequency supported by the memory, you need to look at the motherboard configuration first, and then look at the CPU configuration - if the motherboard supports memory overclocking, you only need to look at the memory frequency supported by the motherboard;If your motherboard does not support memory overclocking, the maximum memory frequency supported by the CPU will prevail. My computer configuration is as follows:
The ASUS ROG Strix B760-G Gaming WiFi supports memory overclocking, but the real overclocking effect still needs to be combined with my CPU Intel i7-13700F. Judging from my comparison with the overclocking results of other netizens, the overclocking potential of my CPU is slightly lower than theirs (or my own operation level is limited), but if you overclock more, you will find that it is just a game, so there is no need to care too much.
The memory I used before was a black bar, without RGB light effect, in the case of the motherboard, graphics card, fan including mouse, keyboard are glowing, it looks dim, so this time KLEVV cras v RGB DDR5 memory on the machine, I feel that the whole small world is lit up?
My motherboard has 4 memory slots, for the sleeve, generally plugged in or slots, the memory has a foolproof port, and it is easy to feel whether it is plugged in or not. In terms of space, as mentioned earlier, there is no space crowding between the memory module and the memory module, and it will not affect the installation of the top fan and the bottom graphics card, but it does look large, and it looks very heavy and solid.
The KLEVV CROS V RGB DDR5 memory features a linear cut-out heatsink side design that allows RGB lighting to reflect from the top to the sides, resulting in a gorgeous, full-gamut streamer effect. Although when staring at the screen, the afterglow is only swept to the inside of the case, but the light effect of the memory module is more saturated and gorgeous than that of graphics cards and motherboards, and the immersion is particularly good when playing games. Of course, if you're fun-loving enough, you can also customize it more with the RGB lighting control software you use.
Okay, now that we're done with the look, let's take a look at the performance test of the KLEVV CRAS V RGB DDR5 memory.
Let's take a look at the SPD information of KLEVV cras v rgb DDR5 memory with CPU-Z:
It can be seen that the KLEVV CROS V RGB DDR5 memory uses SK Hynix, i.e. Hynix particles. Jedec presets three sets of frequencies and 4800MHz, corresponding to C36, C40 and C42The XMP preset is a set of 6400MHz frequency + C32 timing.
The default frequency of KLEVV CRAS V RGB DDR5 memory is 4800MHz, and the corresponding timing is C40-40-40-76.
Use Master Lu to run a score first. In the silent frequency state, my computer's overall performance score is 1899732 points, of which the memory score is 269177 points.
In the silent frequency of 4800MHz and the timing of 40-40-40-76, the running scores of AIDA64 are: read speed of 73139MB s, write speed of 67603MB s, copy speed of 67078MB s, latency of 880ns。
The PerformanceTest has a memory score of 3255.
The compression and decompression benchmarks were measured with 7-zip and a compression score of 124975 gips, decompression score 135419gips with an overall score of 130197gips。
With a 3DMark Time Spy score of 13,374 points, 13,225 points for graphics cards, and 14,292 points for CPU, it can achieve a 125+ frame rate performance at 1440p resolution when playing games like Battlefield 5.
6400MHz, timing 32-38-38-78, voltage 135V is the preset mode of KLEVV CRAS V RGB DDR5 memory XMP, this set of parameters is the insurance parameter obtained by KLEVV through multiple adjustments, which can ensure the stable and high-performance operation of the memory. For those who are not familiar with overclocking, they can be called directly to get a performance that surpasses the silent frequency, but can maintain stable performance. Moreover, you can directly select the corresponding parameters, which is much simpler than manually setting the timing and voltage parameters by yourself, and the risk is small.
Let's take a look at the performance of KLEVV CAS V RGB DDR5 memory after XMP AI intelligent overclocking:
Master Lu's memory score is 362790 points, which is a full 93613 points (34.) compared to the silent frequency78%）。
In the XMP overclocking 6400MHz and timing 32-38-38-78, the AIDA64's benchmark scores are 96180MB s, 86375MB s, and 87846MB s respectively, respectively, which is an improvement over the performance of silent frequency. 77% and 3096%。Latency reduced to 679ns, a decrease of 2284%。
The memory score measured by the performancetest is 3845 points, which is an increase of 1813%。
The compression, decompression, and decompression benchmarks were measured using 7-zip, and the compression, decompression, and overall scores were respectively. 067 and 136103 gips, which is 9 percent higher than the silent frequency state73%、-0.26% and 454%。
The 3DMark Time SPY, graphics card, and CPU scores are 14919 points, respectively. In addition to the solid performance of the graphics card (up 7 points), the 3DMark Time SPY and CPU scores are 0.064% and 439%。
As mentioned above, the XMP preset mode is an officially verified way to overclock, but this does not mean that 6400MHz is the limit of KLEVV CAS V RGB DDR5 memory.
My CPU and motherboard configurations aren't great, so I probably can't hit the overclocking limits of KLEVV CRAS V RGB DDR5 memory, which is a bit of a shame. However, although there is not much room for "squeezing", it is relatively easy to manually overclock to 7000MHz, and 7200MHz can also be overclocked and booted normally, but the test data is not very stable, so here is a demonstration of the manual overclocking operation of 7000MHz-C34:
Still boot into the BIOS interface, enter advanced mode, select manual overclocking, set the target memory frequency to 7000MHz, set the timing to 34-45-45-96, and set the voltage VDD and VDD q to 1435v。Click "ezmode(f7)" and click "save and exit", the computer will be overclocked and the computer will be successfully booted soon.
Master Lu's memory score is 384634 points, which is 21844 points higher than that of XMP (6400MHz-C32).02%）。
I ran the AIDA64 test and measured a read, write, and copy speed of 10173GB S, 92023MB S, and 94196MB S, respectively, improved performance compared to XMP (6400MHz-C32) mode. 54% and 723%。Latency reduced to 664ns, with a decrease of 221%。
The memory score measured by PerformanceTest is 3881 points, which is 094%。
The compression, decompression, and decompression benchmarks were measured using 7-zip, and the compression, decompression, and overall scores were respectively. 124 and 135310 Gips, which is lower than that of XMP (6400MHz-C32). 70% and 058%。
The 3DMark Time SPY, graphics card, and CPU scores are 14814 points, respectively. The 3DMark Time SPY, graphics card, and CPU scores are lower than those of XMP (6400MHz-C32), respectively. 05% and 070%。
When the frequency of the KLEVV CRAS v RGB DDR5 memory is set to 7200MHz, the AIDA64 test works fine, especially with the read speed improvement. However, there will be interruptions in the 7-zip test, so in terms of stable performance, the memory frequency is still 7000MHz, which is more suitable for daily use.
I believe that through the above comparison of the parameters of KLEVV CRAS V RGB DDR5 memory before and after overclocking, you can also see that the improvement of overclocking on memory performance is still very obvious. Even the most accessible one-click XMP AI intelligent overclocking with relatively conservative parameters can achieve an increase of 3478%, read, write, copy speed can be increased to more than 30%, and memory overclocking is also quite helpful for CPU performance, after 4800MHz exceeds 6400MHz, the CPU 3DMark score has increased by 439%。
It can be seen that since the performance improvement of KLEVV CRAS V RGB DDR5 memory after overclocking is very intuitive, as long as it can maintain stable operation after overclocking, the cost performance of DDR5 memory modules will naturally be further improved. I see that there are successful cases on the Internet that it has been superseded to 7600MHz, and interested partners can also overwatch it themselves, memory overclocking, even if it has nothing to do with performance, the exploration itself is already very interesting.
